That wasn’t a battle. It was a sea lion eating his prey.

Unpleasant how the whole video message is covered. It could be done differently.

[robbieburns]

I realize it's nature, but I gotta feel a bit sorry for that Octopus. They are really intelligent.

[metal_man]

Sweet, the captioning hid everything worth watching, well done!

[killwalker]

Lol...struggling.

That Sea Lion was dominating that Octopus, ripping it apart, and eating it.

There was no "fight" it was completely one sided.

It's not a wing span it's a tentacle span.

[marcusaetius]

No battle there, just predator and prey.

Octopus use ink spray!

Sea Lion use Bite!

You all missed the eagle vs octopus a few years ago in BC!

Click bait title for a moderately interesting story🙄

[RayRay-uwms]

a struggle?
it's just lunch time for the sea lion

[teaguebates]

And for the rest of his life, old seven-legs had an amazing tale to tell

It's all fun and games until an Orca shows up

Struggling sea lion 🦭😂😂😂😂... that lady just happened to video the sea lion eating it’s prey... throwing the octopus 🐙 around before having its snack 😉😉😉😉

Sea lions like to play with their food sometimes much like cats, there was no battle.

So wonderful when the words on the screen cover up most of the part of the video that viewers want to see. SMRT!

Octopus should’ve stayed in his octopus garden...

[cdncitizen]

Cant help but think of the metaphor where Trudeau is the octopus... He has tentacles everywhere but is getting completely THRASHED by Canadians who have had enough of his attitude and lack of respect for others.

Didn't know octopi had wings, fascinating.
