    That’s an octopus.

    Squid can’t be kept capitive they die within a day. And only octopus have the flexibility to change into “a rock”.

    Also the conditions these octopus are being kept in are horrible. An octopus needs a cave, and without it it gets stressed and starts self harming.

        They move very quickly. They tend to quickly kill themselves by bumping their heads into aquarium walls.

        If they don’t die from bleeding, trauma, or infection, or stress, they tend to die pretty quickly from asphyxiation. As whenever they bump into the wall, they get suprised, and spray ink, in an aquarium, the ink stagnates and blocks them from breathing properly.

    Yesterday there was a spider walking on my floor. I picked it up with a piece of paper and I was worried it would start running around all spider like and touch me. Instead, it went into a spider version of the fetal position and was like “eww human don’t touch me!”
