My random conspiracy is that octopuses are actually alien life form that crashed into our oceans thousands of years ago. But seriously; if you're ever up in Seattle, despite the touristy nature, the aquarium is totally worth a peek. Watching the G.P.O (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypaxG8AnTdE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypaxG8AnTdE) in it's tank is marvelous; quite majestic creatures, despite absolutely being one of the things I would least like to encounter in the wild. Countless reports of them ripping off essential diving equipment. In the video above, if you' watch the whole thing, the aquarium employee says "this one is about half full grown." Interesting article though, it's always fascinating from a social sciences perspective how the perception of a concept can so quickly shift public policy.
