Yeah, even sadder knowing how smart these little guys are. Not that I don't care about less-intelligent animals but like... I bet that octopus had an entire personality

I’m not a vegetarian. One way I have peace with being a meat eater is respect for the animals I eat.

As a seafood lover I think what a waste….And as a human this seems cruel. Poor thing

They're seriously impressive in terms of neurological capability and reasoning. Like, I found it hard to believe how intelligent they are. Not sure if you care that much but this video was enlightening for me

Combined with the fact they can fit through any opening the size of a quarter

Heard this one was contaminated?‽ Idk don't ask me. Just overheard through the grapevine at the Altgeld Dairy Queen. Who sells a contaminated octopus anyway?!

This is sad. People are scum for doing this.

For dropping an octopus they bought to eat?

I mean it is pretty sad that this creature had to lose its life to become pigeon food.

Xolotl23•

Would've been food for some animal, does it matter which?

It is a waste of Life & Energy, independent any individual perception.

17
Xolotl23•

Could have very well died on its own anyway at least it's food for other animals now. It's not wasted at all

What if that was your pet or evoked an emotional response in you? Don't need to be so objective all the time

I understand the appeal of throwing an octopus, but aren’t Red Wings fans supposed to do that at a hockey arena?

Glad to see someone else remembers this.

I'm not particularly comfortable with either the speed nor the scope of this animal's evolution. I thought we had, at the least, 250 years before they started coming for us.

I’m lowkey shook this is strange to see.

Assholes. Whoever did this deserves to be dropped in the ocean too far out to swim back.
