Hey, we'’’rethe Kratt Brothers.
I'’’m Martin.
And I'’’m Chris.
In almost every ocean around the world there lurks an amazing creature.
And we know where there'’’s a real friendly one.
Come on.
There she is right down there in the cave.
Let'’’s see if we can call her up.
Come on, girl.
CHRIS: See tentacles.
Hello, Georgia!
Here she comes.
A Giant Pacific Octopus!
MARTIN: All right.
Wow, what a grip.
CHRIS: It'’’s amazing how strong these suction cups are.
They really latch on.
That'’’s a cool Creature Power.
And the octopus has a lot of cool Creature Powers.
CHRIS: One of them: arm regeneration.
If one gets bitten off by a predator it can grow back the arm.
And the Creature Powers don'’’t end there.
Octopus have incredible camouflaging.
They have chromatophores all over their body that can change the color of the octopus depending on what it'’’s sitting on or its mood.
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 you later, Georgia!
Imagine if we had the Creature Powers of the octopus!
And could use them in the deep sea like the Giant Pacific!
