Hi my name is Vanessa and I have been learning about octopuses and squids. I leaned that squids have a bullet shaped body for speed. Squids are the fastest swimmy animal in the ocean. A Reef Squid can make itself appear lighter or darker by changing the size of the colored spots on its skin. The vampire squid lives thousand of feet deep in the water. A vampire swuid can pull its arms back over its body and hide under the webbing. Squids have may enemies like shark, killing whales. Squids eat clams. A octopus can change it's body shape. Octopuses live in caves and it eat clams and crab. Octopuses have many enemieis like sharks, killy whales, and big fishes but octopuses have ink that comes out and it has the smell of an octupus and the octopus escapes. If a predor bites of his hand the messing part grows back. The paint pasific octopus is the largest octopus it is more than 20 feet (6 m). It live longer than any octopus. Octopuses have hundreds of suckers on each arm.

  1. I learned a lot about squids after reading your research project. I didn't know they were so fast. Thanks for the information.
