-They can squeeze through very small cracks by making themselves flat (an octopus squeezing through an aquarium)
-They can eat sharks
-They can detach tentacles to distract predators or use them in mating wink
-Octopuses LEARN rather than behave on instinct
-Some can emulate the movements of other sea creatures
-Octopuses can be readily trained to distinguish between different shapes and patterns
-Octopuses have also been observed in what some have described as play: repeatedly releasing bottles or toys into a circular current in their aquariums and then catching them
-Octopuses often break out of their aquariums and sometimes into others in search of food
-They have even boarded fishing boats and opened holds to eat crabs
-They can change color to camoflage with their environments
-This color-changing ability can also be used to communicate with or warn other octopuses
And the list goes on and on.
