Octopus hiding

Amphioctopus marginatus


Indonesia has been discovered that a group of octopuses striped (Amphioctopus marginatus) carry coconut shells and carry with them to hide inside or even fit two halves like a clamshell to be covered with them, when you feel threatened.

The body of the tentacles is about 8 cm, its tentacles reaching up to 15 cm and with them, grab the coconut shell and touch the ground, and as thus can not swim, they walk with tips of the tentacles on the sand.

is the first invertebrate is known to be able to use tools, which share very few animals chimpanzees, dolphins and crows.

Fact: A few years earlier, in 2005, researchers discovered another octopus to camouflage from predators wrapping around his body 6 of its 8 tentacles and the remaining 2 were traveling, walking in a similar way humans. With the tentacles curled on itself like a coconut as the many found on the seabed it was in the polish.
