🐙Daily Cephalopod Fact:🐙
The Giant Pacific Octopus can be found from the��intertidal zone down to 6,600 ft, and is best-adapted to colder, oxygen- and nutrient-rich waters. It is one of the largest octopus species on earth and can often be found in aquariums and research facilities in addition to the ocean. They play an important role in maintaining the health and biodiversity of deep sea ecosystems, cognitive research, and the fishing industry.
