Octopus walks on "two legs"!
Maybe it's just the confluence of animal-lover/nerd feeling within me, but this story on today's news has made me smile.

By walking on only two arms, the other six arms can be used to transform their bodies into clumps of algae or rolling coconut shells that may not interest predators. Clumps of algae and coconut shells are commonly found in the shallow, coastal seawaters that these octopuses call home.
