Camouflage Octopus Plays Hide & Seek

Показать описание

-----------------------------------------------

This shapeshifting octopus dazzled divers with a mesmerising show as it camouflages and contorts itself along the ocean floor.

Considered to be one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet, this colour-changing cephalopod was caught on camera by Enda Kesim at the Ari Atoll in the Maldives.

At first, the octopus is barely visible as it lurks among the coral but as Enda approaches the clever creature reveals itself and proceeds to glide along the ocean floor.

After interchanging between its natural brown complexion and the deep-sea green of its surroundings several times, the animal then stretches over a reef, assuming its complexion to an unbelievable detail and virtually disappearing in the blink of an eye.
