This octopus can be found in Asia, it's not very easy to see because it's quite small.
This octopus is also one of the most dangerous underwater species. Its ink if it touches its target can cause cardiac arrest, which can easily cause death if one is a few meters underwater.
But don't panic, the rings become a lot darker and bigger to prevent him from getting annoyed.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
Parrotfish create a protective envelope around them when they are sleeping.
So, don't put the light on them during night dive to don't to wake them up and break this envelope.
