An Octopus in Antarctica: Do you recognize it?

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010


I don’t know what to say about this creature. The expedition staff on our cruise had never seen an octopus in Antarctica. This one was in the shallow water near Port Lockroy. If you have any ideas on what species it is, please let me know.
