Octopus makes a rolling armor with a coconut. [video]

Always reblog for cephalopods♡

second order tool usage. A mark of higher intellect.

Okay but is the octopus scared and using the shell as a defense and faster getaway or is it rolling down the hill…playing?

Octopuses love to solve puzzles and play. To be kept at aquariums, they must have a chest of enrichment toys, or they will try to escape.

Even with enrichment sometimes they try to escape, for kicks/to make the humans mad.
