Octopus Oddities – SJL

I have completed the kick start, ‘Octopus Oddities’ challenge. I chose to colour a simple picture, drawing the ‘classic’ octopus a deep shade of purple.  I found the online colouring easier to use than I anticipated but still found it difficult on my Chromebook. I learned many new facts about octopus, for example,

  • There are around three hundred known species of octopus in the world.
  • Octopus have copper based blood which causes their blood to be blue.
  • Octopus have three hearts.
  • Octopus can taste and smell through the suckers on their arms.
  • Octopus are extremely intelligent.
  • Female octopus die after laying the eggs.
