@globalmuseum He's just a cute little guy!
@globalmuseum I see this meme is making its rounds again. Time for a fact check.
This happened in 2012 https://montereybayaquarium.tumblr.com/post/26081246491/midnight-rambler-it-was-3-am-on-june-25-2012
The octopus in question was a Red Octopus, which is NOT the animal in the image, which is a recently-discovered octopus called the Flapjack Octopus.
@globalmuseum that face doesn't even look ashamed! Brazen behaviour
@Tattooed_Mummy each to their own 😂
