The behavior of octopuses is actually so strange that when scientists discovered an octopus that does NOT die after mating, they got called out as frauds by the rest of the scientific community. It's still an animal that doesn't have a Latin name because of this: The Striped Pacific Octopus.
Well, that's just arrogant, especially considering how much of our oceans remain unexplored. It's like how science said cuttlefish weren't venomous until they found one that is: the Flamboyant Cuttlefish.

The more you know about Octopi, the more sense it makes that they could've come from space as frozen eggs on asteroids a long time ago. It made me think more about it when he said they can survive upto 8 years at freezing point
@@HowlingFrog From what I've read they don't, or at most 2 years for some of the larger ones. I have a feeling that he's confusing some terms and not really saying how it really is.
@@cchavezjr7Just looked it up, most eggs take weeks to months to hatch. The giant Pacific octopus has a long lifespan for an octopus - about three to five years. Octopuses in general usually live no more than a year! Weird script this guy was reading.
If you think about it the mother dying after her brood hatches also helps protect her young. Why chase down a small bite when there is a whole meal laying there.
*Sadly it seems like most animals in the wild go for the young, instinctively, when they see them... Even if there's a "whole" adult meal right next to the young... Some animals will actually NOT eat dead animals & will ONLY eat live animals so sadly the young would be ate up first... The way they clung to this thermal vent is insane but it does bring other life towards it, which could include predators but I've heard that sometimes there will be "Octopus Guards" stationed around to chase off any predators. Octopus' beaks can do some damage, even if they are small, especially 100s of them all at once. I believe sometimes they can even scare &/or annoy smaller sharks away.* *Of course we also believe that there are "Giant Octopus" just like the "Giant Squid" that was recently discovered... A "Giant Octopus", with the, insanely high, intelligence that Octopus have, is actually a kind of scary thing. Something the size of a small boat swimming around, while having a RAZOR SHARP BEAK that's the size of a 18 wheeler tire, is horrifying, to say the least.... Not to mention the MULTIPLE BRAINS it has! It always blew my mind to learn that Octopus have MULTIPLE BRAINS... One "Central &/or Main Brain" & 4 other brains at the end of their tentacles to rely messages back to the central brain.... Absolutely mind blowing.*

I think countries with warmer climates have a higher rate of premature born babies. And colder climate countries have a higher rate of still not born after 9 months. So there is some truth in it boys and girls
Just think - this process has existed from the beginning without human knowledge or understanding. They didn't need people. It's as if we think that because we learn about them that somehow that understanding contributes in some way to their existence. It doesn't. They existed without our knowledge from the beginning so we add nothing to the equation. But it's still fun to learn about what always existed.
Learning contributes to their existence by ensuring we don’t do something dumb and unknowingly contribute to their extinction. We as humans cocked things up so much because of ignorance of what we do, and ignorance of the impact of our actions on the larger picture. So, learning about how nature works is important so we learn how to not cock things up!
Exactly how I feel about breeding in captivity. It’s just human ego messing with nature and the natural order of animals. The cognitive dissonance in Man thinking they’re so significant that they get or interfere in this way because they don’t want to lose these beings of entertainment and revenue (zoo’s), but can’t see that they are THE reason that they’re vulnerable and disappearing in the first place, is staggering.
@@Itsactuallyimogene zoos are not the reason species are dying. The purpose of zoos is education and giving young children and their parents an emotional reason for caring about exotic animals at all. And zoos certainly are not the reason species go extinct. Over hunting/fishing and failing to adapt to rapidly changing conditions (caused and accelerated partially, but not wholly, by people) is the reason.

Both octopuses and octopi are acceptable plurals for octopus. Of the two, octopuses is the simpler and more commonly used. The proposed plural octopodes is based on the plural of the Ancient Greek word from which octopus ultimately derives.
Octopi is no longer acceptable according to the dictionary. The most correct plural among marine biologists is Octopodes, though Octopuses is commonly accepted.
The funny thing is that even National Geographic calls them Octopuses 😂 it’s likely because so many .., umm.. not so bright people … think it’s octopuses. More dummies, = more clicks. Sad tho
Ok, Ok...all are correct. . Sorry about all the years I spent in college over the last thirty years. My step mothers first degree was in English. Happy now?
Interesting and very informative and insightful in the sense I was always wanting to try and breed my pet octopus but was always told it is impossible and will never happen, but after seeing this, I instantly thought of ways to mimic thermal vents in my 250 gallon aquarium.
The expiry after reproduction kind of makes sense in evolutionary terms, but I'm struggling to see how actual self-harm would arise. There must have been some kind of extreme population limit at some point. Maybe there was a huge problem with cannibalism of young immediately after they hatched, or some extremely important resource was in such short supply that population growth would have ended the species. There are plenty of things that prey on octopuses today, but maybe after one of the mass extinctions, they had to do population control on their own. Maybe that's how they survived so many of them.
Like us humans. After we reproduce, we only have time to grow up our children, and we start to get old. The reason for what we are here is just to reproduce the future generation.
As someone who is currently pregnant I would be terrified of a sped up pregnancy. Less time to prepare, less time to stockpile money and supplies, less time to prepare older siblings, less time to mentally prepare yourself for the birthing process, and worst of all.....and the part I specifically would find terrifying.....what the physical aspects of pregnancy would be like if sped up. Symptoms are already awful for most women. And we get aches and pains and whatnot too as the baby grows and our uterus expands. I can't even imagine what it would feel like if everything went double, triple, or even quadruple the speed it is now. I can only think about MASSIVE amounts of pain and exponentially more morning sickness. Blech....
I think we finally found an acceptable balance for like reminders! I missed the last couple because I found the reminder to be much too early to gauge how I feel about the whole episode, but reminding us again at the end along with a long enough end card to give us time to get back to UA-cam and interact with the video if we're doing something else (I'm currently navigating an emotional crisis on my own). I'm not sure how well received two reminders in a single video will be, but I do appreciate that your obligatory begging is short, and the extra editing that goes into making them custom to the video topic at hand. It feels very unobtrusive to me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets caught up in letting my playlists just run while I'm doing chores.
@@kateapple1 It's pretty easy to look up statistics to see that simply asking/reminding an audience to interact with a video has a huge impact on how many will. Before getting upset with someone for doing something that you find "annoying", you REALLY need to ask yourself if it's HURTING you, and if so, why. It shouldn't literally harm you for a content creator to take a few seconds to give a gentle reminder to EVERYONE- the important part of this statement is the fact that this action is intended for not just you- to interact with the content if they feel like it. There's a reason so many people call these "please leave a like/sub" bits "obligatory begging". Do you like this channel? Do you like what the creators bring us? Then please realise that UA-cam is a job like any other, except you don't get paid by the hour. The only thing many of these creators have keeping a roof over their heads, and often the heads of an entire team of people, is the revenue made from people courteous enough to NOT skip ads, people generous enough to buy channel memberships or super thanks (or Patreon if the creator has one), and how much of a video gets watched. So, who's not skipping ads, and is there enough people buying channel memberships that this person's channel could go under tomorrow and they'd still be financially stable? Your comment leads me to believe that you're giving into selfishness, as I cannot think of any valid reason you should value your comfort of just a few seconds of watch time over the substantial and real effect that obligatory begging achieves. You need to be a better, more compassionate person. No one has hurt you by reminding folks that by interacting with the video, they quite literally help the creator. If you really have an issue with this, take it up with the entire online content creation community to be better people so creators don't HAVE to include obligatory begging to be successful to their greatest potential. Seriously, though. Just be grateful that the obligatory begging sections aren't obnoxious screaming, threats, or excessively vulgar. Also, you can try to be a bit more appreciative by recognising when channels put extra effort into making these sections custom to their videos, because that's extra editing, script writing, and recording in order to make obligatory begging flow better. Just please, if you're going to take ANYTHING away from this, if you even read it (because I HIGHLY doubt you will), just take a moment when you feel upset over someone doing something harmless in order to help themselves: Remember that these are real, living, feeling people who need to eat, sleep, and otherwise stay alive just like you. If you're jealous of what someone else has, remember that it can all be taken away in an instant. If you like what someone makes, please try to rejoice when they find healthy ways to live a better life, and take comfort that the better their life is, there's a very high chance that the content you already enjoy from them will only get better. Please try to celebrate when people are able to take better care of themselves, because that's honestly what this argument all boils down to. Your words insinuate that you view content creators as soulless machines whose existence revolves around your wants and desires, which if the world worked that way, everyone would be living in squalor, because there's no way we could collectively organise a way to financially support our neighbours the way that social media pays creators, and for a lot of creators, this is their only job. This IS their literal bread and butter, and you're arguing to take away from these people for your own enjoyment, and would probably throw a fit if someone you enjoyed watching announced they had to stop or step back from content creation due to needing to pick up another job just to support themselves. Be better. Do better. Find compassion within yourself, and if you REALLY don't like something that's honestly NOT hurting you, then give a bit of constructive criticism with the understanding that people are individuals, and allowed to not be you or cater to you, and thus do their own thing. Take time to truly realise that you are not the centre of the universe, and that you don't know the lives that these people live, and thus have no idea of the hurdles they may be attempting to cross right now. You have the potential to be a beautiful person full of compassion, and you could take comfort in knowing that your helping someone. Or, you can continue to be a bully with hints of control issues. Please choose the option that will leave the world a better place.
I don't understand why the mothers need to boost their metabolism when they are supposed to slow their metabolism to be able to last the long incubation.
Jfc it's just octopus, just like fish in plural form is fish. Also, don't be a jerk, mind your own business and don't act like you're better bc "words" make you uncomfortable. That's boomer snowflake behavior.
A science show should do us the courtesy to translate the units to those that the entire audience outside of America uses: metric. 52 F (?) = 11 C 35 F (?) = 1.7 C 2 miles - 3.2 km 10000 ft - 3048 m
In English, the plural form of words ending in -us, especially those derived from Latin, often replaces -us with -i. There are many exceptions, some because the word does not derive from Latin, and others due to custom (e.g., campus, plural campuses). Conversely, some non-Latin words ending in -us and Latin words that did not have their Latin plurals with -i form their English plurals with -i, e.g., octopi is sometimes used as a plural for octopus (the standard English plural is octopuses). Prescriptivists consider these forms incorrect, but descriptivists may simply describe them as a natural evolution of language.
Years to hatch? Years? Not so sure on that. Edit: yes I was mistaken in my initial post. As I replied in another comment here, I was busy doing household stuff, half listening to the video and thought they were talking about the typical giant pacific octopus, which has a period of about 7 months to hatch. When I am wrong, I admit my mistakes and learn from them. Have a great day everyone!
I doubted it too. Most octopus species take much less time, but that particular species can indeed take years. Like the video said, the cold water a depth probably slows them down.
Just when the most strange ,amazing creatures on earth have checked all the boxes this comes up ......there's much more to these than we will ever know

I feel the same way, but this is a consequence of the choices he made. The videos he makes aren't nearly as fun and entertaining anymore. He listened to a few naysayers that didn't like all the fun elements he put in, and now his content is just boring.😢
Octopi is no longer the acceptable plural of octopus. As others mentioned, the prefix is Greek and suffix is Latin. The most correct plural is therefore Octopodes, though Octopuses is more commonly accepted.
This is so amazing, omg. Imagine seeing them just laying there. i know it's not humanely possible to swim with no equipment and see them there, but just imagine if you did. Whoa!
I looked it up, octopus eggs take weeks to a few months to hatch, depending on the breed. I think this guy is reading a script that was supposed to say weeks, not years...

The only thing many of these creators have keeping a roof over their heads, and often the heads of an entire team of people, is the revenue made from people courteous enough to NOT skip ads, people generous enough to buy channel memberships or super thanks (or Patreon if the creator has one), and how much of a video gets watched. So, who's not skipping ads, and is there enough people buying channel memberships that this person's channel could go under tomorrow and they'd still be financially stable?
Your comment leads me to believe that you're giving into selfishness, as I cannot think of any valid reason you should value your comfort of just a few seconds of watch time over the substantial and real effect that obligatory begging achieves. You need to be a better, more compassionate person. No one has hurt you by reminding folks that by interacting with the video, they quite literally help the creator. If you really have an issue with this, take it up with the entire online content creation community to be better people so creators don't HAVE to include obligatory begging to be successful to their greatest potential.
Seriously, though. Just be grateful that the obligatory begging sections aren't obnoxious screaming, threats, or excessively vulgar. Also, you can try to be a bit more appreciative by recognising when channels put extra effort into making these sections custom to their videos, because that's extra editing, script writing, and recording in order to make obligatory begging flow better.
Just please, if you're going to take ANYTHING away from this, if you even read it (because I HIGHLY doubt you will), just take a moment when you feel upset over someone doing something harmless in order to help themselves: Remember that these are real, living, feeling people who need to eat, sleep, and otherwise stay alive just like you. If you're jealous of what someone else has, remember that it can all be taken away in an instant. If you like what someone makes, please try to rejoice when they find healthy ways to live a better life, and take comfort that the better their life is, there's a very high chance that the content you already enjoy from them will only get better.
Please try to celebrate when people are able to take better care of themselves, because that's honestly what this argument all boils down to. Your words insinuate that you view content creators as soulless machines whose existence revolves around your wants and desires, which if the world worked that way, everyone would be living in squalor, because there's no way we could collectively organise a way to financially support our neighbours the way that social media pays creators, and for a lot of creators, this is their only job. This IS their literal bread and butter, and you're arguing to take away from these people for your own enjoyment, and would probably throw a fit if someone you enjoyed watching announced they had to stop or step back from content creation due to needing to pick up another job just to support themselves.
Be better. Do better. Find compassion within yourself, and if you REALLY don't like something that's honestly NOT hurting you, then give a bit of constructive criticism with the understanding that people are individuals, and allowed to not be you or cater to you, and thus do their own thing. Take time to truly realise that you are not the centre of the universe, and that you don't know the lives that these people live, and thus have no idea of the hurdles they may be attempting to cross right now.
You have the potential to be a beautiful person full of compassion, and you could take comfort in knowing that your helping someone. Or, you can continue to be a bully with hints of control issues. Please choose the option that will leave the world a better place.

Isn’t the plural of octopus “octopi”?
No it’s octopus for both
Pluto used to be a planet, too. I'm not liking the changes either.
😂yes it is.
Both octopuses and octopi are acceptable grammatically. 👍🏼
@@Tranquility32 True. But one just feels so.... naughty. Lol
I want to live under the sea in an octopuses garden in the shade.

5 years for octopus eggs to hatch ? OMG
I don't understand why the mothers need to boost their metabolism when they are supposed to slow their metabolism to be able to last the long incubation.
That’s ok, you don’t need to understand it.
I understand it but am unwilling to explain it.
The faster the metabolism starts the faster the incubation happens .

The best octopi doc I have seen in a long time. Learned a lot thanks.
So, is it octopuses or octopi which is plural? I always call them octopi but maybe they now call them octopuses which sounds weird.
@@ms.anthropikEVERYTHING else is being "redefined"! Why not!
@@MitchMitch77-77 I agree. Unfortunately, WE are not the ones who are redefining everything.
I’m glad someone else said it . OCTOPI
Jfc it's just octopus, just like fish in plural form is fish. Also, don't be a jerk, mind your own business and don't act like you're better bc "words" make you uncomfortable. That's boomer snowflake behavior.
Keep up the good work!! I been watching your videos for a while now! Absolutely love the content
A science show should do us the courtesy to translate the units to those that the entire audience outside of America uses: metric.
52 F (?) = 11 C
35 F (?) = 1.7 C
2 miles - 3.2 km
10000 ft - 3048 m
thats what i hate about them. we are the one who will adjust and do the conversions just because they refused to use the metric system.
Thanks for the video, keep up the good work you're the best
Thank you for teaching me something new ☺️
In English, the plural form of words ending in -us, especially those derived from Latin, often replaces -us with -i. There are many exceptions, some because the word does not derive from Latin, and others due to custom (e.g., campus, plural campuses). Conversely, some non-Latin words ending in -us and Latin words that did not have their Latin plurals with -i form their English plurals with -i, e.g., octopi is sometimes used as a plural for octopus (the standard English plural is octopuses). Prescriptivists consider these forms incorrect, but descriptivists may simply describe them as a natural evolution of language.
Octopuses are my favorite, and I would love to see this garden 😍
Fascinating creatures
Absolutely love them
is it weird that i still thought 'Octopi' was the most common plural form of octopus? I learnt more about english today than octopuses.
Octopuses sounds terrible.
Interesting octopus facts 🐙🤔
Bro did my like botton literally glaw after u said we should "LIKE " IT
Thank you for another amazing video. It is great to watch experts like you put the hard dedication on UA-cam for our joy.
Also...I believe they call that a KEYSTONE species
Nature and actual natural intelligence with an emotional balance. Im glad they don't disturb natural balance ❤🖤💙💙💙
Interesting and cool video, and interestingly enough, I never heard the word "Octopi" said once.
there are a lot of octi in puget sound...so maybe there is a hatching area in puget sound.
Years to hatch? Years? Not so sure on that.
Edit: yes I was mistaken in my initial post. As I replied in another comment here, I was busy doing household stuff, half listening to the video and thought they were talking about the typical giant pacific octopus, which has a period of about 7 months to hatch. When I am wrong, I admit my mistakes and learn from them. Have a great day everyone!
I think this particular octopus species "Graneledone boreopacifica" holds the record for the animal with longest gestation period
@@RockPaperSccissors Lmao nice
53 months is
*counts on fingers*
Nearly four and a half years
I doubted it too. Most octopus species take much less time, but that particular species can indeed take years. Like the video said, the cold water a depth probably slows them down.
That was my takeaway, also.
Dolphin: is there an ocean buffet going on ?
octopuses: YES!
This reminded me so much of the Cathedral of the Forsaken in Elder Ring

The plural form of "Octopus" is "Octopi". Sorry that really bugged me. Oh god it's spread to the chat! Nooooo
Generally octopus is its acceptable plural form as well though
@@RockPaperSccissors but not "octopuses" and that's what keeps getting said
@@Joyfullagony sorry yeah that's the word I meant to say, I looked it up and was surprised that it was the correct form too
@@RockPaperSccissors this makes me sad
If octopus was a Latin word, octopi would be correct. It's a Greek word, so octopuses is the correct plural.
Ive never seen the like button glow. That was really cool
Thank you.

It's not a big deal. Channels have ups and downs, the most important thing is that I see good changes here, and he reads the comments, it's clear how he fixes problems in his videos
I don't want WATOP to stop posting videos, I don't know how it happened, but I am convinced that his videos are underestimated
Why did you say that?
I feel the same way, but this is a consequence of the choices he made. The videos he makes aren't nearly as fun and entertaining anymore. He listened to a few naysayers that didn't like all the fun elements he put in, and now his content is just boring.😢
I couldn’t imagine the amount of these gardens that have been completely wiped away after dredging or trawling
Can you talk about the espresso making looking machine, but regular brew looking coffee?(the intro)
Octopi is no longer the acceptable plural of octopus. As others mentioned, the prefix is Greek and suffix is Latin. The most correct plural is therefore Octopodes, though Octopuses is more commonly accepted.
Octopi was only acceptable to illiterate people
Yea don't mis pronoun an octopus, you could be sued for discrimination lol
Thank you so much for using the correct plural form of octopus!!!!
imagine a small group of octopus making headlines across social media platforms.
How did The Beatles know about them all those years ago then!!?? “I’d like to be, in an Octopuses Garden, with you…” 🎵 🎶
I'd like to be under the sea
In an octopus's garden in the shade
I knew this would be here. Well done. 👍
Did I just hear that it takes multiple years for octopus eggs to hatch?
Those seastars are HUGE and terrifying looking!
This is so amazing, omg. Imagine seeing them just laying there. i know it's not humanely possible to swim with no equipment and see them there, but just imagine if you did. Whoa!
I looked it up, octopus eggs take weeks to a few months to hatch, depending on the breed. I think this guy is reading a script that was supposed to say weeks, not years...
It indeed take years.
@@usamong1129 Well, I did look it up and that’s the information I got. Could you send me a link stating otherwise?
In the circle of life, we are each the teacher and student of one another…
Low sea temperatures is a factor.
Today I learned that without mating Octopus would go extinct and that Octopus eggs take 5 years to hatch.
This particular octopus species' eggs take years to hatch, other species only take like a year at most or as short as a couple months
Really Cool Info
Thanx 👍🏼
I’m so glad protections are in order 💕
The Beetles predicted this 🤯
What did they say?
No they didn’t. They described something they learned that other cultures already knew

The plural of octopus is “Octopi”.
It's not a Latin derived word, so isn't pluralized as "octopi."
Octopus are fascinating. I had no idea how their gestation was so long.
Very glad that the area is so well protected!
If I had a dollar for ever time that scientists were wrong, I'd be as rich a Joe Biden.
He's a pauper?
its octupi
octopuses, octopi, and octopodes are all acceptable plural forms
The added in “chomping” sound effects, of the animation fish eating the octopus 🤭
And so goes the grand cycle of life. Everything on Earth living or not depends on everything else, the more widespread and prolific the better but there are always limitations.
Calamari anyone?

Thats squid not octopuses
It all tastes the same…
I prefer takoyaki
