Why is it said that helping it breaks the rules of nature? With that said, aren’t human beings a part of nature? When other humans encounter a tsunami and encounter a beast attack, why do we help them? Does helping them violate the rules of nature? Are natural disasters and man-made disasters also a means of selecting natural materials and eliminating the fittest?

Then why do humans go beyond the boundary to help their favorite animals? Will this move really affect his survivability over time?

Craig said that he is not like a visitor of nature but a member of it. But all his thoughts and actions are still carried out from the perspective of human beings greater than nature. If the situation of the octopus and Craig are exchanged, will the octopus be rescued? After all, octopus would not consider whether Craig was an octopus or a human.

But Craig's relationship with Octopus is still very sincere, and the camera is very gentle. I have no opinion on upgrading. beautiful! In the end, I couldn't help leaving a few tears, and then yelled: "I will never eat octopus balls anymore!" (But the balls are really delicious!
