Octopus Origins



Found this article in the Globe and Mail that was pretty interesting. It says that the deep sea waters of Antartica's Southern Ocean is the home of most of the world's deep sea octopus. So I guess we can say that deep sea octopus had this out of antarctica movement that had occurred some 30 million years ago.
What is interesting that Canadians are involved in this. One researcher is from Memorial University, located on The ROCK.

Great little discoveries like this make my day so much brighter
