Octopuses are characterized by their eight arms (not tentacles), usually bearing suction cups. These arms are a type of muscular hydrostat.

They have neither a protective outer shell like the nautilus, nor any vestige of an internal shell or bones, like cuttlefish or squids.

Octopuses have a relatively short life span, and some species live for as little as six months. Larger species, such as the North Pacific Giant Oct
