Meet the mimic Octopus!

Hi readers,

Have you heard of the mimic octopus? If not, you can read all about it in the October issue of chickaDEE!

What makes this deep-sea creature so special? It can make itself look like a jellyfish, sea snake, banded sole and more! One of the reasons this octopus changes its look is to trick prey, like crabs, to come closer. Then the sly fella snatches up its food with its long arms!

Have a look at the video below to see the mimic octopus in action.

Pretty amazing, right?

Talk to you later, readers!
