Thread: Octopus Catches Bald Eagle

- A group of salmon farmers are going viral after they rescued a bald eagle that had been caught by an octopus near Vancouver Island in Canada.

According to CNN, the team of farmers was returning to their float house earlier this month when they heard the eagle screeching and splashing. Salmon farmer John Ilett told the outlet that once they figured out where the sounds were coming from, they found "a full-sized eagle submerged in the water with a big giant octopus in the water trying to drag it down."

Video footage of the dramatic incident shows the octopus with its arms wrapped around the eagle, seemingly trying to drown it...

Eagle: "I hate it when that happens."
