"Casper Octopus in the Deep Sea of the Cook Islands

Our Corps of Exploration witnessed this Casper octopod from the suborder Incirrata while exploring a series of knoll hills in the central region of the Cook Islands' waters. Using the ROV Little Hercules, we were diving over 4,100 meters (13,000+ feet) deep when we spotted this roaming cephalopod, still mostly unknown to scientists. With an arm span less than 20 centimeters, this petite white or violet octopus was nicknamed Casper when first spotted in 2016, more than 3,000 miles north in the Hawaiian Islands. While no formal species name has yet been given to these animals (as no specimens have been collected), scientists estimate that Casper octopods may be the deepest-dwelling octopus species that lacks fins." - nautiluslive.org

Just watching my fave ocean floor mapping stream

They were talking about remains and some how I just forgot that things eat bones.

Like I was assuming bones were just there. They turn into fossils right? WRONG

Apparently there are a lot of animals that eats bones as well not just fungus and such

How fucking wild that the only fossils we have are the one that didn’t get eaten

Sometimes in the normal assumptions we lose the wonder of life
