Was watching Animal Planet earlier after waking up from my nap. The topic tonight was fairly interesting as it was about Giant Squids and mega sized Octopus (tako tako)! The squids are so mega sized that it can grow up to 150 pounds and can even kill humans during a feeding frenzy.. They also plan their little tactics of suctions to bring a human down into the deep…
Somehow, humans still love to catch them for food. It is weird, we eat them and they in turn prey on us when we drop into the sea by accident on their hungry days…
The segment on the octopus was interesting too. Apparently, the octopus is able to use its brains and tentacles to open a bottle that has food in it …Survival of the fittest eh..Need to be brainy to eat…
Unlike the crocodile that has been doing the same things over and over again for their hunt over the past few thousand years, the octopus and the squids seems much cleverer in their evolution.
So, I guess it is not true when we always say people can be blur like “sotongs”.. squids and their relatives are quite clever …
