I’m going to take a hurricane pass on this one, because my work life has been consumed with hurricane prep the week before, worrying about my animals during the hurricane itself, and cleaning up from the aftermath of the hurricane, which makes for a very tired Amanda!
Thankfully, this little kraken and our other animals are did well in the storm-though our facility is a complete mess! We are slowly but surely getting everything back to normal. Our outdoor areas have the most work to be done, but we got really lucky. Preparation, backup generators, our emergency team, and the storm moving slightly off the coast were out saving grace.
So, long story short, Happy World Octopus Day from myself and this little cutie! Amazed doesn’t even come close to describing how I feel about these incredible, diverse, fantastic, and intriguing animals.
