Feeding a giant pacific octopus

Figured I would share some footage of me feeding a giant pacific octopus. Her name is "Lola" and she is more than awesome!

I don't have any editing skills, so I apologize for the background noises and my crazy ramblings. Apparently I speak to the octopus like it is a dog! I had no idea. Also, sorry for the mild cuss -- no matter how many times I feed her I still get excited!

Lola is a fantastic creature indeed. Where is she being housed?

Shaw ocean discovery center in Sidney would be my guess.

Yup! The discovery center is right.

My brain is hurting a little since getting a job there, as there is a lot to learn. But it's a good kind of hurtin'.
