New Octopus insight revealed

These animals are so interesting. If they weren't so smart (and I didn't feel guilty), I would love keeping one.

Saw this on the news this morning. Amazing. It was funny watching the octo grasp the shell and walk on his tentacles across the sea-bed.

ROFL. I watched the octopus coconut video about 10 times today. The only invertebrate found to use tools. Pretty amazing. There was recently a documentary on the discovery channel about Cuddlefish that was amazing too. It went into there ability to 'hypnotize' their prey. Unreal.
