Since it is Cephalopodmas, I think it’s only fitting to throw in another Friday Cephalopod, the psychedelic Wonderpus.

Friday Cephalopod: Bonus!
Wonderpus
Pharyngula
Evolution, development, and random biological ejaculations from a godless liberal
soon to be Wonderpus photogenicus or
so they say
LOL! Sounds like somebody grew up watching RoadRunner cartoons!
Now I get it; candy canes are designed after the tentacles of the wonderpus!
So that’s why people always give them out at Cephalopodmas!
Wonder if it tastes like peppermint?
The colours and patterning remind me of the Lion Fish http://www.cameldive.com/pictures/lion-fish-big.jpg
But maybe that is just me.

Sorry about the double post above. Here is a short video of the Wunderpus in locomotion.

Here’s something for cephalopodmas
The picture is great but the video of this wee(?) beastie moving around is just so cool!
Have a happy cephalopodmas, y’all.
