they also sing "finnegan's wake" when a fellow octopus dies but only dogs can hear it and since we never bring our dogs under water, people dont know

eating octopus babies is OK, they expect most of them to be eaten by something before reaching adulthood anyway, that's why they lay so many eggs, so, no harm no foul

Someday the octopus babies will be smart enough to chew their way out of your stomach when you eat them live

You know those gifs of octopus squeezing through really small holes? Well that's because they're bodies are incredibly flexible. They're so malleable that an octopus can squeeze through any gap that isn't smaller than its beak, the only part of their body that is too hard to mold.

They're incredibly smart for invertebrates and I love them, but I don't think eating them is any more amoral than eating other relatively intelligent animals. If I didn't eat octopus I'd probably have to stop eating pork too. Eating any animal alive is really hosed up though.

Aquariums feed captive octopuses by putting some food in a puzzle and putting the puzzle in the tank. The octopus has to solve the puzzle in order to get the food. :eng101:
