Octopus
The Octopus is a sea animal with eight powerful feet
which it uses as hands. These are called tentacles. The word “Octopus” comes
from two greet words that mean “eight feet”.
The
octopus, the squid and the cuttle sh belong to the same family that has
no outside shells. Their bodies are covered entirely with skin. Therefore the body
of an octopus is soft. It looks like a big balloon. A fully-grown octopus can be
as large as 8,5 metres from the tip of one tentacles to the tip of another. It
can weigh as much as 45 kilograms.
Besides
using its tentacles to catch small fish, sea plants, crab and lobsters, the
octopus also uses them against its enemies. The octopus wraps its tentacles around
the victim and squeezes it before eating it
The
octopus escapes from its enemies by giving out a thick dark fluid to darken the
water. It can also change the colour of its body to match its surroundings. It hides
from its enemies by doing this.
