[Coral-List] Octopus punches fishes

Hi Beki,

Here you go:

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/rps_octopus-meets-shark-underwater-vision-from-activity-6741947648057638912-P40c

Initially I was unable to find a direct URL link via the LinkedIn app,
hence why I didn't share the first time.

(rest of list CC'd in case they want to have a look).

Best regards,
Ivan
