Video of the Week: Clash of the Coconut Octopus

Our friends over at Lembeh Resort and Critters@Lembeh have done it again. 

It looks like some coconut octopus decided to "wrestle" over possession of a coconut shell for about 30 minutes and their interesting behavior was caught on film. 

With some "creative" editing by Sascha Janson, the Critters@Lembeh photo-pro, the video takes on a comical air making it well worth a watch.  Critters@Lembeh's Vimeo channel is full of great critter videos.
