Wild Octopuses: Evidence, Myths, and Mysteries

Octopuses
are well known for their ability to change their shape and color in the blink
of an eye. More than 300 species of octopus inhabit the intertidal to the deep
sea, ranging in size from smaller than a grape to an arm span of over 15 feet.
Join cephalopod biologist Dr. Crissy Huffard as she discusses her research on
how wild octopuses move, learn, survive, reproduce, and evolve. She will also
discuss the scientific evidence – or lack thereof – behind popular ideas and
myths about these fascinating animals.
