An octopus escapes death after a hunt goes wrong in a sequence from Blue Planet III, the latest series presented by Sir David Attenborough.
The footage captures the animal in a dangerous encounter during a hunt. Events do not unfold as expected, however, and the octopus manages to survive the threat.
The sequence forms part of the new Blue Planet series, which continues the programme’s focus on marine life. No further details about the location, the other animal involved or the circumstances of the hunt are provided in the supplied material.
The octopus’s escape is the latest featured moment from the series, although the available information does not state what happens next or provide details of the wider episode.
