Watch this red pacific octopus disappearing into sand !
As Jon Anderson (the diver who shot the video) explains:
I started the video rolling, and observed this fascinating behavior that I hadn’t seen before. When illuminated by my light, the octopuses would find and disappear into a nearby innkeeper wormhole. I observed several octopuses exhibiting this behavior that night. Perhaps the octopuses are learning that Whiskers (the infamous Harbor Seal) uses divers lights to hunt for dinner and devising new escape strategies. I am happy to report that no octopuses were eaten by Whiskers in the making of this film.

There are 34 species of tenrec, a small omnivorous animal endemic to Madagascar and parts of mainland Africa. The tenrec female has 29 teats and can give birth to up to 32 young per litter, more than any other mammal. Pictured above: lowland streaked tenrec.
