In deep with the octopus

"Octopuses are eight-armed, boneless, solitary creatures. Some can weigh over 200 pounds while others can be as small as a golf ball. They have taste receptors all over their bodies, and scent receptors on every arm. One kind of octopus can even spit out toxic saliva at its enemies! These complex creatures can solve problems, store memories, recognize shapes and even mimic other creatures. Learn how octopuses shoot ink; explore habitats; find out how octopuses have changed over the centuries; discover the neat tricks they perform; learn what octopuses eat, and what eats them; take a quiz"--Back cover. Take a journey inside the world of the octopus, with photos and facts about the types, anatomy, life and mating cycles, habitats, behavior, and intelligence of the octopus.
