Happy World Octopus Day!
It's October 8th. It's not hard to guess why this day was chosen to celebrate 🐙 World Octopus Day, is it? These strange, alien-looking creatures have some remarkable features, such as their thousands of smart suckers, eight semi-autonomous arms, three beating hearts, copper-based blue blood, and eerily advanced intelligence. And they've been around for 300 million years – long before even the most ancient dinosaurs emerged.
Octopuses are incredibly resilient to external pressures. They have relatively short life spans of from several months to several years, which is probably one of the secrets to their success over the millennia. They can adapt to environmental changes across new generations very quickly. But that doesn't guarantee they'll thrive forever. Commercial fishing is taking more than 50,000 tons of octopus out of the oceans every year.
So on this World Octopus Day, let's take a little time to contemplate these incredible eight-armed animals as they quietly jet-propel themselves through our planet's oceans, masquerading as other animals, and occasionally even using tools. Hopefully, by celebrating World Octopus Day, we'll bring their plight to light and compel ourselves to reexamine our relationship with nature. ☮️ Peace… Jamiese of Pixoplanet

Nature’s balance is so frail, so fragile. If even part of it collapses, we shall all disappear. We won’t even be a wisp of a memory in the grand scheme of the planet and universe.
World Octopus Day!
