A doggerel series
about odd or little-known animals.
Blanket Octopus is the common
name used for the currently 4 described species of the Tremoctopus genus. Blanket octopuses live throughout the world's
tropical and sub-tropical oceans, occurring from the surface to moderate
depths.
The blanket octopus floats flat—
He’s wise—and knows just where it’s at.
He is a groovy, subtle cat.
It's true: His tentacles are weird—
Perhaps they oughtn’t to be feared?
But when the other creatures jeered,
Well, he just floated where he was
And wasn’t hurt—and all because
A blanket does just what it does.
It makes you comfy, sleepy too.
And then he’ll do what he must do:
Consume you quickly—instant stew!
