The documentary is a bit sensational/over the top at times, but I'm not bothered as I
just care about the footage. They used to be prominent at a beach I had access to as a
kid and they've been a favorite member of our fauna to me ever since.
I don't think I have to spell out in too much detail why this might be relevant or fun
and refer to: it thinks itself into different form, skin structure, color etc. Why are
our bodies, nervous systems, and skin so dull in comparison?
We're all worm and slug descendants on some level right? Why did we pass up such useful
and amazing features? Stupid nature/evolution... I want that feature.
No, really: I want that! Can anybody hook me up? PGC
I find cuttlefish fascinating. They are social, relatively intelligent, can communicate,
able to grasp and manipulate things. It seems like they were all set to become the
dominant large life form (instead of humans).
