It Looked Like An Ordinary Shell Until the Time This Man Pokes It
Well, you certainly don’t see this every day… Check out the unique fort-building skills of the veined octopus. Known for unusual behavior like bipedal walking (and its shameless shell theft), this is definitely not your average cephalopod!
This cute, shy octopus gathers up shells from the ocean floor so that he can build a safe hiding place from predators — and, you know…curious cameramen. His kleptomaniac tendencies have landed him the nickname, “Kleptopus.” What a little thief!
Octopus dens are usually under a rock or in a crevice, and the animal has even been observed taking up residence inside of an old, discarded bottle on the sea floor. Or stolen shells.
What an awesome creature! The world underwater never ceases to amaze me...
