Octopus Documentary
13 Answers
I am writing a paper on intelligence and octopi and I remember seeing a documentary about an octopus that was leaving its tank at night, crossing the lab table, and dropping into the shrimp tank to eat. The researchers set up a night camera to see how the shrimp were disappearing. I can't find the name of the documentary anywhere, and I can't remember who produced it (Discovery, PBS, Nature�?) If anyone knows the name of the show and who made it, I would appreciate your help!

Yes, but that in itself is fascinating isn't it? people've always thought that octopuses, being molluscs, haven't much intelligence, but actually, their brains are quite large, and perhaps we just don't understand them properly yet.

When writing your paper you might also want to bear in mind that Octopi is not the correct plural of Octopus.
The correct plural is Octopuses or Octopodes.
Yes, Octopi is often used but it's use is based on a misconception that Octopus is a simple Latin word of the second declension, when in fact it is a Latinised form of the Greek word Oktopous.
