There it is everyone! It's the bottom!
And I'm super excited to be here on our final dive of our, Deep Connections expedition 2019.
And our first site is the cutest octopus ever!
I really enjoy watching octopus behavior.
They are way too smart for their own good, in terms of solving puzzles.
They pass the mirror test, they can recognize their own reflection as a reflection not as another creature.
At this point, I'm half convinced that if they had opposable thumbs they would be our overlords by now.
Is that an octopus climbing up the rock in the background?
Good site, I didn't see that. That's pretty cool.
If I recall correctly, as well, they have kind of little independent neurological substations
for each of their tentacles. Is that right?
That's right.
So, their tentacles sort of have their own mini brain.
That's pretty awesome.
So many cool octopus things!
This is what the final dive of our expedition should be like: full of octopods.
Just wave your hands in the air, like you just don't care!
So, everybody at home, stretch out like an octopus.
Do some moves.
This is your octopus interpretive dance time.
