information 

  1. Physical Features: Octopuses have soft bodies that are shielded by thin skin. They have eight arms (also called tentacles), which are covered with suction cups that allow them to grasp and manipulate objects. The octopus' head contains complex eyes that allow it to detect movement, change color and orient itself in its surroundings.
  2. Behavior: Octopuses are considered highly intelligent among sea creatures. They have elaborate nervous systems that control their advanced behavior. They are capable of solving simple problems, memorizing routes and using tools.
  3. Color change: Octopuses can change the color of their skin, which allows them to mimic their surroundings. This ability is controlled by their nervous system and helps with communication, camouflage and defense against predators.
  4. Camouflage: Thanks to their ability to change the color and texture of their skin, octopuses are adept at hiding from predators or hunting their prey, approaching them unnoticed.
  5. Food: Octopuses are predators and feed on a variety of marine organisms, such as fish, crabs, clams and crustaceans. Using their flexible arms, they can grab and overpower their prey.
  6. Reproduction: Octopuses have a complicated life cycle. After fertilization, the female lays eggs, which she then guards and cares for. During the period of caring for the eggs, the female may stop feeding, giving her life to future offspring.
  7. Short life expectancy: Most octopus species are relatively short-lived, usually one to several years. The level of predation and short life cycle mean that their populations can fluctuate widely.
  8. Diversity of species: There are many different species of octopus, and their size, appearance and behavior can vary widely.
  9. Research: Octopuses are the subject of intensive scientific research because their behavior and cognitive abilities provide valuable information about intelligence and evolution in the animal kingdom.
  10. Marine ecosystems: Octopuses are an important component of marine ecosystems, influencing the regulation of populations of other organisms and serving as both prey and predator in the food web.

trivia 

  1. Short-lived: Most octopus species have short lives, usually from a few months to a few years. After laying eggs and caring for them, octopuses usually die.
  2. Body flexibility: Octopuses have incredible flexibility in their bodies and arms. They can shrink, elongate and twist, allowing them to adapt to different environments and situations.
  3. Arm wrestling: Studies have shown that octopuses can be trained to perform simple tasks such as unscrewing jars and even "compete" in fun competitions such as arm wrestling (running with arms).
  4. Ink release: Octopuses can excrete ink that mixes with water to form a cloud of darkness. This can serve as a defense mechanism to confuse predators or for escape.
  5. Three Hearts: Octopuses have three hearts - two of them pump blood to the two crevices, and the third pumps blood to the rest of the body.
  6. Shoulder regeneration: If one of the arms is lost, octopuses can regenerate it within a few months. This process is called autotomy.
  7. Hiding in the cracks: Octopuses are able to hide in crevices, holes and other types of shelters, where they use their flexibility to avoid predators.
  8. Memory and learning: Octopuses have the ability to learn from experience and remember learned behaviors. They can recognize different shapes, colors and people.
  9. Complicated egg nests: Some octopus species build elaborate egg nests using rocks, shells and other objects. These protect the eggs from predators and changing ocean conditions.
  10. Amazing use of chromatophores: Chromatophores are special cells in the skin of octopuses that allow them to change color and patterns on their skin for camouflage, communication and expression of emotions.
