    Seal Slaps Kayaker In The Face With Octopus Because Nature Is Completely Unhinged
    The octopus-wielding pinniped appears to be a New Zealand fur seal.

    A wild video was captured in the waters of New Zealand over the weekend.

    Kyle Mulinder, a self-described “GoPro content creator,” was kayaking with friends off the coast of Kaikoura when all of a sudden, what was likely a New Zealand fur seal — an animal in the same family as sea lions — broke the surface and smacked him the face with an octopus.

    Taiyo Masuda, another GoPro videographer who was also on the trip, posted the jaw-dropping moment to Instagram on Sunday, complete with a slow-motion version if you like to octopi your time with that kind of thing.

    When the video hit Twitter on Wednesday, many gave the incident their seal of approval.
