ROBERT SCHNECK: Octopus With 84 - Yes, 84 - Tentacles
It seems the well of strange octopus stories will never run dry. Am I the only one who didn't know that:"every so often an octopus with extra tentacles is discovered. These octopi [sic] typically have the usual eight tentacles branching off their trunk. But then the tentacles branch out themselves, and continue to branch out, until you have something like the last specimen: an 84-limbed beast."
The author goes on to call it a "fractal octopus".

Global carbon emissions reach record, says IEA
Butterflies close wings to avoid sex

BROOKLYN SEA MONSTER: "Much ado about Nothing," says Max
In fact he wrote something far less printable. However, I agree - of course its a sturgeon. How could any idiot think otherwise? However, in our increasingly urbanized society people are less and less in touch with the natural world. A few years ago a neighbour came to us in a state of high excitement because "one of our animals had escaped" and she would call the police if we didn't come and collect it now!
