Floating leisurely on the waves, a sea otter is holding... a giant octopus! It looks quite satisfied with its impressive catch. The contrast between its cute looks and wild prowess has sparked a flood of comments, such as, "It's such a huge catch, I can't tell who caught whom..." and "The cuteness of its face doesn't match the size of its prey."

Maichon, the Photographer of Eastern Hokkaido's Nature

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