A sea otter floating on the waves is holding... a giant octopus! It looks quite satisfied with its impressive catch. The contrast between its cute looks and its wild toughness has sparked a flood of comments, such as, "It's hard to tell who caught who..." and "That cute face doesn't match the size of its prey."

Maichon, Photographer of Eastern Hokkaido's Nature

The person who captured this lively scene of the sea otter is Maichon, who lives in Northern Hokkaido. While working as a nurse, Maichon spends their holidays capturing the landscapes and wildlife of Hokkaido with their camera.
