A moving and unexpected scene unfolded at Kleinbaai Beach Blouberg, near Cape Town her South Africa: One mother and her two daughters, aged 3 and 5 years, found in the sand a octopus which had been washed and looked at still.
The octopus “looked dead” on the beach of South Africa, the mother told Newsflare. Then, her 5 -year -old daughter had the idea of throwing some water on him. After several attempts, the octopus began to show signs of life. With the help of the mother, the animal eventually returned to the sea.
After entering the water again, the octopus did not leave immediately. On the contrary, she approached the mother’s hand and spread a tentacle to her finger, as if she were saying “thank you” before slowly moving away.
“It touched me very lightly and then removed,” the mother told, excited by this unexpected contact.
The widely disclosed video of the rescue causes the admiration of internet users, many of whom see it as a sign of recognition by this fascinating marine creature to its saviors.
