Taking a vacation within a vacation from Paris to Amsterdam. I love that the plane trip is only one hour 30 mins. Being from Canada that is not something I typically get to experience.
The Mimic Octopus captures the hearts of sea enthusiasts as it has earned the award of one of the best animal actors in the world!
The Mimic Octopus gets it’s name from it’s ability to mimic almost any other animal sharing it’s habitat. Not only do they act the part by copying the behavior of the other animals, but they can change their shape to appear the same way as well!
They have developed this ability as a survival tactic, for the cephalopods live in murky regions of the Indo-Pacific that lack coral and other hiding spots most octopuses would usually use. Therefore, the mimic octopus hides in plain sight.
They are even intelligent enough to determine which animal to disguise as in order to ward off specific predators!
