This is by far one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Linky.
Make sure you watch the embedded video - absolutely awesome.
I have merged the above post with an existing thread on the subject.
But were they African or European octopi carrying those coconuts?
Yeah, but shag one squid…
Very cute.
I just hope they don’t tell the spiders about this whole tool concept.
No.

I was very impressed by a video of an octopus. The researchers had placed a piece of fish in a glass jar and screwed the lid on before putting it in the octopus’ tank. The octopus was able to figure out how to unscrew the lid to get the fish out.
I love when it notices the camera and next thing you see is tentacles and suckers all up close and personal.
Who’s a smart widdle cephawapod? You are! Yes you are! Yes you are!
Would an octopus be comfortable with the notion of a right-hand or left-hand thread?
It would be the coolest thing ever if the cephalopods were playing the Doctor Who theme on Tesla coils.
So.
Not only are they skeevy enough to star in Japanese Tentacle Pron, they are *smart enough *to be producers for the films!
Hey, now, Matt,“lolloping” is the perfect word ! Inspirational, even…
Octopus lollops with the coconut, puts them both together,
puts a tentacle in the coconut, nothin’ feels better.
Sitting in the coconut and suckers them both up,
Octopus lollops with the coconut, across the ocean flooring

It reminded me of celebrities trying to block the papparazzi.
