i didnt have any octopus photos on hand, so i went ahead and drew two myself... hopefully they're recognizable enough to be identified! happy world octopus day!
Closest IDs: Opistoteuthidae (Dumbo octopuses) and Octopodoidea (Typical octopuses and allies)
Reasoning: I’d recognize that little guy anywhere. Not sure if the right octopus is E. dofleini (because the skin texture looks quite rippled and I don’t see an ocellus) or O. cyanea (star pattern around the eye, little spot on the mantle)
Thank you for the drawings! 💙
