Some reasons to appreciate the flamboyant cuttlefish:
– It can walk along the seafloor on arms and fins—a rarer mode of transit for this otherwise adept swimmer.
– It varies its buoyancy by varying the amount of gas and liquid held in the holes of its porous internal shell, called a cuttlebone.
– When threatened, it doesn’t dart away like other cuttlefish species. It remains stationary, pulses its fins, and flashes its hypnotic color scheme.
