on't end there.
Octopus have incredible camouflage.
They have chromatophors all over their body that can change the color of the octopus, depending on what it's sitting on or it's mood.
- [Martin] See she's changing color right now.
- And don't forget about jet propulsion.
See those slits on the side of her head?
She takes in water through them, and then blows it out really fast through her siphon.
She'll do that if she wants to move fast.
Otherwise, she just walks along the bottom.
See ya later Georgia.
