In an extremely rare marine event, dozens of Octopuses have crawled out of the sea onto a beach in Wales. According to Brett Stones, who recorded this footage and runs local dolphin-watching tours, “Approximately 25 of these animals were seen crawling out of the sea at night here in New Quay on Friday.” Stones said he helped collect the creatures and return them to the sea, but unfortunately, a number were found washed up on the shore the following morning.

Take a look at a couple of these creatures in the footage.
