Dear readers,
Today I will be talking about octopuses!
1. The first octopus I will be talking about is a coconut octopus. The coconut octopus lives in the coast of Lembeh, an Indonesian island. Are you wondering why it is called a coconut octopus? It’s called a coconut octopus because it likes to hide in empty coconut shells and any big shells. The octopus’s body is a s big as your thumb!An octopus sees a diver as a person who wants to hurt him so they squirt ink at them!
2. The second octopus I will be talking about is an octopus that lived a long time ago. In a museum in Bristol, England there is a fossil with an imprint of a 10 inch octopus on it. The fossil is rare because usually animals with soft bodies leave no trace. It’s is 90 years old and one of the oldest known octopuses!
Octopuses are wonders! If you want to learn more about different types of octopuses you can read the National Geographic magazine called Explorer Pathfinder: Octopus.
