The octopus excels as an adaptable mollusc, boasting eight supple limbs of the order Octopoda, encompassing roughly 300 recognised species within its realm. Alongside squids, cuttlefish, and nautiloids, octopuses reside under the class Cephalopoda, marked by bilateral symmetry and a striking visual presence of two piercing eyes and an unyielding beak, set against the core axis of their eight flexible limbs, accurately classified as arms, rather than incorrectly identified tentacles. Its malleable body can seamlessly modify its shape to easily traverse tight openings. As it glides effortlessly through water, its eight delicate appendages flow behind like an entwined ribbon. By releasing a burst of fluid via the siphon, octopuses efficiently regulate their breathing and movement patterns. In addition to remarkable cognitive prowess and perceptive abilities, these marine mammals showcase unmatched intellect and rich behavioural dynamics, placing them amongst the most remarkable and intricate invertebrates worldwide.
