Mesmerizing Footage Of Undiscovered Deep-Sea Life

Our oceans cover more than 70% of Earth’s surface. While the ocean remains largely unexplored, we occasionally get a glimpse of the weird and wonderful creatures that eke out a living in the deep. There are countless creatures on this planet we'll likely never discover. There are many creatures, some cute, some terrifying, and most of us know little about them.

The blue glowing Coconut Octopus: The coconut octopus, alternatively known as the veined octopus, is an intelligent cephalopod widespread in the Indo-Pacific tropical waters. It has derived the name from its tendency of carrying coconut or seashells as its armor. This medium sized octopus is not poisonous. Their average length is 3 in (8 cm); including the tentacles, they are around 6 in long (15 cm). They weigh around 7-9 oz (200-250g). Coconut octopuses have elegant physical characteristics marked by a brown colored body with vein-like lines paired with a yellow siphon. White and blue colored suckers create a perfect contrast to the dark colors observed on the edge of the arms. A trapezoidal shape area right under the eyes exhibits white shade. Coconut octopuses are commonly found throughout the tropical Pacific and the Indian Ocean, from Australia to South Africa, Southern Japan, New Guinea, Indonesia, and India.
