RE: Amazing and intelligent Cephalopoda
Its amazing just how intelligent these creatures are. I was watching some videos on youtube a while back of an octopus solving puzzles to get to a treat. Quite impressive.
They are so fascinating also because they reached their high level developing on a completely different path of evolution than we did. Therefore it may be less surprising if for example a chimpanzee proves to be intelligent than if an octopus does ...
Yep, exactly. There are so very many things about them that are functionally similar but structurally quite different. Their eyes for instance are very different from ours.
