Truth | Investigation | Reality on Instagram: "Octopuses have been caught on camera doing something hilariously unhinged: randomly punching fish.

Octopuses have been observed punching fish, seemingly without any clear reason. This behavior usually happens when they hunt cooperatively with fish, sharing resources in the process.
