She had been experimenting on him. The jet of water shot at her was a small attack response to inhuman testing. Birds and other creatures equally recognize human faces, especially those that are about to eat them.<\/p>\n<p>On the tool-making. Octopi love to eat crab and easily make short work of them, but it is more curious in how they decorate their \u2018lairs\u2019 with decorative shells or even coconuts sunk to the ocean bottom. Building up their lairs with more rocks to hide behind further proves their intelligence as well as tool usage.<\/p>\n<p>In sexual matters the octopus is even smarter than the human male. They have an adapted arm, a hectocotylus which he inserts into the female in order to delver the sperm, usually at a safe arms length. Very wise behavior as the female usually devours the unlucky male getting too close.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%; vertical-align: top;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5041\" src=\"http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-300x199.jpg 300w, http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-1024x680.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-768x510.jpg 768w, http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-2048x1360.jpg 2048w, http:\/\/sweetgeodes.com\/senft\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Octopi-love-at-a-distance-452x300.jpg 452w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%; vertical-align: top;\">Like the human species, some continue liking the dangerous sex, they make their dens near the females but BEHIND the safety of a rock.

Moreover they can completely regrow their arms should they lose them. Not in the stunted or weakened limb that lizards do, but these are totally equal to their former self.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, some research has shown that the DNA and genome of an octopi contains similar genetic code that we humans have.

Evolution has given this beautiful animal a central brain, but it also feels the world through <strong>each<\/strong> of its 8 arms that are directly attached to its head and central brain. Bear in mind, if cut off they seem to function independently as two thirds of the Octopi&#8217;s neurons are in its arms, giving new meaning to let your arms do some of the <em>&#8220;thinking&#8221;\u2014or at least the coordination, problem-solving and reaction\u2014on their own. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Human males also have a member that does that, often to the owners chagrin. It is all too sad that these wonderful intelligent creatures have such a short life span, or do they? Perhaps their cognition of time is measured entirely different than our own and their time in in Aquariums or experimenters sea tanks may seem decades long. &#x1f61f;<\/p>\n<p>c) Herb Senft 2023<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Octopi, for one thing are smart and are probably on the intelligence level of a young child or a dog.
