How many feet does an octopus have?
The octopus has eight feet. Octopus body is short oval, saccular, finless, head and body boundary is not obvious, there are large compound eyes on the head and 8 retractable wrists, each wrist has two rows of fleshy suckers, and the wrist is connected by membranes of different lengths, and there are two rows of sessile suckers on the wrist, so it is called "octopus" and does not belong to fish.
The first six-legged octopus was named Henry.
In 2008, British marine experts discovered what they claimed to be the world's first six-legged octopus and named him Henry. Breeders at the Black Pool Marine Life Centre in north-east England said the rare marine creature had two feet less than a normal octopus and was probably caused by birth defects, not by accident. "We searched the Internet and talked to other aquariums, and no one has ever heard of six-legged octopus," said Dakhouse, a supervisor.
Henry was found two weeks ago in a lobster pond off North Wales. Marine Life Center staff brought him back from the local Ocean Zoo, along with seven other creatures. Marine Zoo staff did not find that the octopus was missing two feet.
It was not until Henry put his feet on the inside of the glass trough that the staff of the Marine Life Center noticed that Henry was missing two feet. Octopus is famous for its three hearts and blue blood, but six feet are not characteristic. "he's a cute little guy," a spokesman said, adding that Henry would meet with the public later this month.
The second hexapod octopus was eaten.
According to foreign media reports, an American couple took their children to the Greek seaside for a holiday and caught a hexapod octopus alive in the sea. Only after eating the octopus did a family of four know that it was the second six-legged octopus found in the world.
Hydarh, a 49-year-old American man, was born in Greece. Although he currently lives in the United States, he takes his wife and two children back to Greece for a holiday every year. At the seaside, they caught a big octopus, the family was very happy, but also took a lot of pictures of the octopus.
Later, the family went to the restaurant chef, hoping that the octopus could be turned into a big meal for a family of four, but the chef refused. The cook said the octopus was so rare that it should be allowed to return to the sea. But the Hydarh family did not understand what the cook meant. They finally add slices of lemon, tomatoes and lettuce leaves to make a big meal of the octopus and eat it.
After eating, Hydarh suddenly wanted to know why the chef didn't want to do it. He called one of his biologist friends, who told him that the family of four had eaten the second hexapod octopus ever found. In 2008, biologists found a hexapod octopus for the first time in British waters and named it Henry. After hearing the news, Mr. Hydarh said he was "scared". He said he ate such a rare creature out of ignorance.
