Octopuses prefer certain arms when hunting and adjust tactics to prey: Octopus hunting patterns have implications for bioinspired robot design - Science Daily

Biologists investigated whether octopuses preferred certain arms over others when hunting, rather than using each arm equally. No matter what type of prey came by, each octopus attacked using the second arm from the middle.
Famous for their eight arms, octopuses leverage all of their appendages to move, jet through the water and capture prey. But their movements can look awkward and seemingly unplanned at times, more cl… [+2575 chars] Read More
