Octopuses have very special reproductive characteristics. They can only reproduce once in their lives. Octopus belongs to the mollusk group. After mating and laying eggs, both male and female octopuses lose appetite and die after about a week.

Whenever the breeding season, the female octopus lays a bunch of crystal clear and plump grape-like eggs. From then on, she has kept guarding her beloved baby, and she often uses her tentacles to touch its shiny eggs, Ice spurted out of the funnel and rinsed one by one. Until the little octopus hatched from the egg shell, the female octopus was still worried and still refused to leave. In the end, she became very stunned, and some died due to overwork.
