🎉Party streamer or octopus poop?💩 ⁣ Ever wonder how an octopus poops? An Octopus expels waste through its siphon located on the side of their mantle - the siphon is also responsible for shooting jets of water to propel itself forward & dispersing ink to protect against predators.⁣ Jet propulsion = biologically yeeting ⁣ The red shade signifies this Maori octopus’ diet consists mainly of crab 🦀 — whereas a paler white indicates a diet of scallops, clams, mussels & shrimp 🦐 ⁣ ⁣ But yeah... kin

Everybody poops...even octopuses! At 17 seconds, look for a long, noodle-like string and then whoosh: a rush of octo poop! Octopuses get rid of waste through their siphon—the same body part they use to propel themselves through the water. | Shedd Aquarium
