I'd feel the need to go get a toy or some sort of food to trade with the octopus after it worked so hard to bring that crab to me. He's probably like,"gently caress! Stop backing up you assholes. This is hard work. I'm just trying to give you a snack." I guess he could have been attempting to get a taste of human when they went for the crab? I think some octopodes put out lures.

Moridin920 posted:Octopuses are underwater so they can't discover fire no matter how long they live Listen buddy, they would get more and more adventurous on land and would invent baggy aparatus to siphon water to breathe and eventually observe fire on one of their land expeditions and then poo poo is on. Also this'll probably happen in a few eons they'll go picking through our ruins and learn a valuable lesson about cooperation and then flee to Europa when the sun goes red giant there's my elevator script pitch

Edgar posted:I think I saw a documentary on the discovery channel that octopuses roam the land in the future, even showing an animation of them swinging on trees like Tarzan, in the movie Tarzan. Also had spiders fattening up mice like pigs to eat. Oh man. I saw this so long ago and I've tried to talk about it with people and no one else had seen/heard of it. I was convinced that I made it up until this very moment. Not only did they show the monkey-looking ones swinging around in trees they had big fat short legged ones that roamed the forest floor eating up critters. drat strange that show.

Sometimes some squids like to fly out of the water. I recall seeing videos about this, shooting little jets of water to fly and landing in boats and poo poo, but apparently someone doesn't want us to know about this anymore Anyway, it's true, here's an article https://phys.org/news/2013-02-bird-plane-squid.html

Inexplicable Humblebrag posted:it's weird to think that we actually have no idea why octopuses are called octopuses. just one of life's mysteries Word Origin and History for octopus n. 1758, genus name of a type of eight-armed cephalopod mollusks, from Greek oktopous , literally "eight-footed," from okto "eight" (see eight) + pous "foot" (see foot (n.)). Proper plural is octopodes , though octopuses probably works better in English. Octopi is from mistaken assumption that -us in this word is the Latin noun ending that takes -i in plural.

It's actually because they were first described in an untitled octavo opus. The description of the book ended up becoming synonymous with the creature therein and eventually got abbreviated to octopus.

I've seen a dozen or so octopuses while diving, and I get really mad when other divers gently caress with them. When someone manages to pry an octopus out of its hidey-hole and it frantically tries to hide it feels like bullying to me.

Fun octopus fact: based on the cells in their retinas they are colour blind and no one really knows how they sense colour to camouflage themselves. It might be something to do with the polarization of light, or it might be that their skin is light sensitive and they actually use their ability to change colour as a filter to detect different colours with their skin.

that is pretty cool it doesn't make much sense for an octopus to be eyeballing the color anyway. Seems like a pretty human-experience-centric way to think about it (IE that's how *we'd* do it if we could camouflage ourselves). For one thing the light refraction through the water they live in makes that a pretty difficult proposition. Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 19:26 on Mar 4, 2019 |
