The beast did this in an attempt to deceive and assault the prey.?
The cephalopod then accomplishes something unprecedented in its history. Two of the Octopus'?tentacles?are used to 'walk' and assault the victim. Even if an octopus misses its prey, seeing the creature's ingenuity while hunting is a sight to behold. A video of the incident was captured on camera, which stunned internet users.
