Boy and Girl Octopus

This is Part 4 of a 41 minute video that was taken in the Maldives. These are very intelligent animals, smarter than dogs and yet they will mate only once in their lives and the will both die shortly after they mate. To continue their species, she will lay up to 200,000 eggs and will die of starvation protecting them. He will die several months later. As you watch the video you can see how octopi can change colors and shapes to blend into the rocks around them. They can get into and out of just almost anything and change colors to match it.
