Havoc in a Germany aquarium

Kinda funny that such behavior in a fish is countered by giving it more toys and attention--whereas the general rule for children exhibiting such behavior means they get a time-out
o.O

Octopi aren't fish, they're cephalopods! Also, they're super smart.

Wow, that's amazing!
I'm not sure I'm buying that he did it out of boredom, though... or any other human emotion. Their brains are very different from ours, and evolved independently. Though it does seem like a good explanation for it.

Also, /agree Qyn about juggling hermit crabs. WTB animated gif of that.

Personally, cuddlefish (cuttlefish) are my favorites.
