A stranded Giant Pacific Octopus at Bay View State Park in Washington recently got some much needed help from an unlikely person.
The creatures are rarely found on tidal flats, and when they are exposed, they are in danger of predators and death, GoSkagit.comAccording to Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve Environmental Educator Anne England, the tide was on its way out and the creature would not have survived for long.
A family visiting the area came upon the octopus in distress and told ranger Brandon Hoekstra about how it was approximately 200 feet away from safety in the water. It was possible the animal would not have survived without the child and her family taking swift action and helping get the octopus back where it belongs.
