This heartwarming story illustrates the extraordinary connection that can develop between people and aquatic life, spanning the gap between two very different worlds.

Meet Casey

Casey is an octopus mother who had been looking for a safe place to hide her babies from the fishermen.

A Temporary Home

She decided to keep her eggs in a plastic pipe along the beach, thinking it would keep her soon-to-be babies from predators and fishermen.

But They’re Still In Danger

However, a woman named Marris spotted her and saw how vulnerable Casey and her babies were still because “Some fisher people will deliberately sink these tubes hoping an octopus will take up residence,” she said.

Away From Everyone

So Marris helped secure the pipe to a brick and placed it deeper in the water, away from prying eyes and hungry mouths that might endanger the lives of Casey’s babies.

I’m Here To Help

She also saw that Casey was not eating as she was too busy guarding her eggs so she gave her some mussels she found nearby, which the octopus mom was a little reluctant to accept at first but eventually figured that the human was there to help her.

The Ocean’s Unpredictability

However, one day, a storm caused some harsh waves to lead Casey away from her babies, and when Marris came back to where she had previously left the tube, it was already gone.

Finding Her Babies

Marris helped Casey find her babies, and when they finally did, she had a friend create a more secure structure to protect them in the future.

She’s Grateful

Casey knew Marris had been helping her and her babies all this time, so when she would approach her to check on them, she was not as protective and aloof anymore.
