The Octopus at Occupy the Rose Parade

Fat cats and greedy pigs make great symbols of corporate greed, but multi-armed octopi speak to the ways in which corporations operate. On January 2nd, 2012 a 70ft octopus puppet made of recycled plastic bags joined in the occupation of the Rose Parade. 40 puppeteers marched the puppet down the parade route on a beautiful sunny day.
