Here is a blanket octopus.
argonaut
>>5027693Firefly squid
I like this bright blue octopus
>>5028762
>>5027693Obligatory
>>5027693
>>5028776Fyck yeah.Cuttlefish is the best.
>>5027717True.
>>5028762>>5028763What a cute special little feller
>>5031374why are its eyes like that
>>5031662Most cephalopods have well developed eyes but nautilus have really bad vision for some reason
>>5031662That's the anus, not an eye
>>5031374why is he crying tar
It's always blown my mind that things like this still exist in this world
>>5031662because they make you seethe
>>5028775that is one cool looking cephalopod
>>5028776>>5031374Cuttles are the best with second place to the nuaghts.Squid beats puss.
>>5032094Nautilus are dead last. They’re a novelty but that’s about it. Cuttles, squids and octopus are all more interesting and just better in every way
>>5027693Why did it evolve into that? Those "sails" look like a hindrance to escaping predators or capturing food. Or does it use them for some illusion trick?
>>5032186Seethe more. Your autistic obsession won’t change the facts
>>5032207Nope
>>5032057That's some good eatin
>>5032207It allows him to channel magic more efficiently
>>5032207They are retractable
>>5032173Cute!
>>5027693The ones that developed from assholes
>>5032094true, puss is overrated
>>5028776Is that a flamboyant cuttlefish?
>>5027693Bump
>>5041066Giant cuttlefish
>>5032207It lives very deep under the sea and uses the sails to drift with the current to conserve energy
>>5032207nobody would call him blanket octopus until he evolved a blanket. that's why the blanket is a bit of a rush job and isn't actually that comfortable
I love squid, they're very pretty
and finally
>>5027717Fpbp
cats, ironically enough
>some of the most intelligent animals on the planet>lifespans are too short to make any use of their intelligencelol nice going nature lmao
>>5046138They also get dabbed on by almost every vertebrate in the ocean
Thank god for cephaloautists, I love looking at all the squiddies
>>5048028Same here. Best thread I've seen in a long time.
>>5047525that's not really truecephalopods tend to sit in the middle of the road, they get eaten by larger fish, sharks, and mammals, but they also primarily eat fish
Why do cephalopods have such short life spans compared to other sea critters their size?
>>5048730So they dont become a threat
>>5046138>some of the most intelligent animals on the planetCorrection.Some of the most intelligent INVERTEBRATES on the planet.>>lifespans are too short to make any use of their intelligenceCorrection.They don't need any time to teach their offspring any skills because 99% of their behavior is pre-programmed like insects.Also, cephalopods are so primitive that they don't even have myelinated neurons. >>5048731Got a pet theory that the giant/colossal squid population exploded when the killer whale population was at its lowest.
>>5048741>killer whale population was at its lowest.*SPERM WHALE population was at its lowest.
