Veined octopus (Amphioctopus marginatus) hunting on black volcanic sand. This octopus seeks out old sea shells, particularly bivalves, to provide shelter, often carrying these around as it hunts. It is common to find this octopus using discarded items, such as broken bottles and tin cans, to substitute for shells. Coconut halves are particularly prized - this octopus is also known as the coconut octopus. Filmed in the Lembeh Strait, Sulawesi, Indonesia. | |
