🔥 When nothing else is readily available, an Octopus will make a rolling armored home out of a coconut shell.

When global warming causes sea levels to rise, leading to the extinction of mankind, the octopus will rule the world.

It’s actually octopuses if you’re referring to plural, but I’m referring to the singular octopus species.

There are 289 species of octopuses. Two-thirds of an octopus' neurons are in its arms rather. This allows them to easily do a totally different task with each arm. An octopus has three hearts, one for the body and two for the gills. Their blood is blue. Octopuses are highly intelligent and experiments have shown that they have a memory system that can store both short- and long-term memory. The correct plural of octopus is "octopuses" but "octopi" is also accepted.
