Beschreibung

Are octopuses aliens? Are squids monsters of the sea? Will cuttlefish take over the world? Cephalopods include octopuses, squids, cuttlefish and nautiluses. These incredible and strange creatures that live deep in the sea have fascinated people for centuries. They have developed amazing abilities to help them survive, like squeezing through the smallest of openings, regrowing limbs, camouflaging with their surroundings in the blink of an eye and shooting dark ink into the faces of their enemies. Discover true stories of creatures from around the world, like Inky the octopus, the clever aquarium escape artist in New Zealand and the dangerous red devil giant squid of Mexico. Covering everything from anatomy and communication to habitat and personality, this book is a fact-filled dive into the ocean. Are you ready to meet the cephalopods?
