A new #FactoryFarming nightmare is unfolding—#seafood giant #GrupoProfand just got the green light to experiment on baby octopuses in #Spain.

Their goal? Cracking the code on captive breeding to pave the way for the world’s first #OctopusFarm.

This new lab will experiment on baby #octopuses by manipulating their larval development—a critical hurdle that has prevented octopus farming from scaling up.

In the animation, the octopus's life is shown in two contrasting versions—one where she is stuck inside a tank in an #OctopusFarm and the other swimming happily and freely in the #oceans. In the end, the humans learn an important lesson from the octopus and realize that all life is one. The epilogue is a reference to #LeoTolstoy 's short story Esarhaddon, King of Assyria—a reminder that it is impossible to harm others without harming ourselves.
