I’ve always preferred octopodes. I like smart critters, and they’re ugly-cute. I was surprised, then, when I saw a cuttlefish in motion – just how graceful they actually are. They’re not cute creatures by any means (not like the grimpoteuthis ["Dumbo octopus"]) but they still have a certain beauty to them – that alien beauty of sea creatures.
