      ​@Luke H its octopuses in english. The word is greek, you cant just put a latin plural ending on it because you cant tell the difference. The greek plural is octopodes, but in english we use the english plural ending which in this case is -es.

    Loved the “romance” of the squid pair. There was something quite beautiful about their dance. Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊

    Are those squid or cuttlefish? Maybe some squids really resemble cuttlefish, or it’s just how the video was edited.

    @ted should you really be hiring social media guys if they don’t even know the difference between a squid and octopus?
