Lincolnshire's Living Seas
Common octopus (Derek Haslam)
 
Common octopus
Able to move using jet propulsion, disappear in a cloud of ink or blend perfectly with its surroundings; there is much more to the common octopus than an ability to predict football results.
 
Found in temperate and tropical waters of all the world’s seas, including the North Sea off the Lincolnshire coast, the common octopus is considered amongst the most intelligent of all invertebrate animals.
Find out more about the common octopus and download activity instructions to make your own.
