    Octopodes* plural of octopus (octo is Greek root, odes is Greek root plural)

    Go ahead and negative this comment, same as last time a marine biologist called bullshit on a Maine biology comic needing some correction.

    Fun fact, if I’m not mistaken many octopuses can not just change color, but also change shape to mimic their environment. In other words, an octopus trying to mimic a brick would not just take on the texture of the brick, but also the shape.

      All they have bone wise is a beak. Whatever can fit their beak they can also fit through.

      I used to be an adventurer-octopus like you, but then I took a sea urchin to the tentacle.
