@brutamerica: A mother and her young daughters discovered what they thought was a dead octopus on Kleinbaai Beach in Cape Town, South Africa. After pouring water over the animal and moving it to a tidal pool, the octopus revived. Video shows the ocotopus stretching out a tentacle to lightly touch one of its rescuers before swimming away, in what many viewers are calling a gesture of thanks.⁣ ⁣ #capetown #oceanrescue #wildlifemoments #octopus #beachstory
