Where's the octopus?

Where's the octopus? It's a question that goes well beyond cute videos and actually explains most of the world's problems and how to solve them. More on that later...

But first, the star of today's show. Watch the video below, and see how an octopus can hide in plain view, just like yesterday's blogfish showed you fish camouflage.



It's amazing how the octopus can hide so effectively as if it were a rock, a piece of coral, or a clump of algae. It's still an octopus, but its shape, texture, and color match perfectly with it's surroundings.

More later on solving the world's problems with the wisdom of the octopus...

Cool video! The camouflage is a great skill for an octopus. He can easily hunt and also defend from enemies.
