A day in the life of a pearl octopus. Deep below the ocean’s surface, just off the Central California coast, thousands of octopus gather near an extinct underwater volcano. The Octopus Garden is the largest known aggregation of octopus anywhere in the world. In 2018, researchers first observed thousands of pearl octopus (Muusoctopus robustus) nesting on the deep seafloor at this site near Davidson Seamount. For three years, MBARI and our collaborators used high-tech tools to monitor the Octopus

The pearl octopus is a pale purple species about the size of a grapefruit that occurs in the northeastern Pacific Ocean from Oregon to Baja California. MBARI has observed this species at depths of 2,300 to 3,600 meters (7,500 to 11,800 feet). Both male and female pearl octopus migrate to the Octopus Garden. Females search for a warm nesting spot to deposit a clutch of approximately 60 elongate, sausage-shaped eggs. When brooding, mothers cover their eggs with their body and protect them from pre

Peek-a-boo with a pearl octopus and her eggs. 🙈💜 ⁠ Octopuses are ectotherms, or cold-blooded animals. The frigid temperatures of the deep sea slow their metabolism as well as their rate of embryonic development. Most deep-sea octopuses have very long incubation periods compared to their relatives inhabiting warmer shallow seas. Past experiments have measured egg incubation time for a number of octopus species in habitats and locations around the world. Comparing those egg incubation times clea

This Pacific day octopus (Octopus cyanea) was all curiosity when one of our remote underwater cameras dropped in for a visit to its reef home in Tuvalu. Pacific day octopuses are capable of changing the color, pattern, and even texture of their skin! They are a joy to watch, and we love observing them on our scientific expeditions. #WorldOctopusDay | National Geographic Pristine Seas
