Octopus By Yugo




Everyone knows about octopus, especially that they have eight arms. There is so much more to learn about these amazing creatures.

Some octopuses are big and some have eight arms called tentacles. Octopuses have soft bodies and no backbone. They have big heads, large brain and large eyes, they have good eyesight. And there are over 150 kinds of octopus.













Octopuses eat clams, abalone, crabs, and fish. They also like to eat snails, oysters, squids, starfish, sea cucumbers, shrimp and fish eggs.

Octopuses live in oceans all over the world. They do not live in freshwater. They can be found on the sea floor, in reefs and hiding in rocks. An octopus’s home is called a den and they like being in hidden caves and in sunken ships.

An octopus is an interesting animal that uses camouflage to protect itself. There are many different sorts of octopus all over the world.
