A visitor to a South African river tossed a piece of sardine to an octopus that then tried to grab his camera before latching on to his foot. A thank you hug ?
“I spotted this octopus hunting and threw it a bit of sardine that I had been using for bait earlier while fishing. The octopus was keen on the sardine, and then took a particular liking to me foot. Or perhaps it was giving me a hug of thanks”
