@abc7chicago: A lucky diver managed to capture footage of a rare octopus disappearing into the sand in Port Phillip Bay, Victoria, on April 24. Video posted by Jules Casey, who frequently shares underwater footage to her OneBreathDiver Instagram account, shows the elusive Double-Spot Octopus burrowing into the sand. “It has taken me 10 years to finally find one at Rye pier,” Casey said. “I’ve seen plenty at Blairgowrie and Sorrento but they remained elusive until two nights ago.” “Initially I thought it was a Sand Octopus until I got closer and saw the colouration was different. Knowing how incredibly shy they are I knew I didn’t have long before it would completely disappear beneath the sand. Very little is actually known about this Octopus because they are a fairly recent discovery. “This one is a male, if you watch closely you can see one arm is slightly shorter and the suckers don’t extend all the way to the tip.” #news #octopus #ocean

Ash Ivory :

To all the people saying octopus are aliens, we can show using DNA that they are related to snails and other mollusks. Being weird doesn't mean not being natural, because nature is weird

MissQueen :

So there could be a whole litter of animals living underneath the ocean floor in the sand. Great
