Octopus
Tumblr media
Octopi are associated with many things throughout cultures, the main things however are; adaptability, intelligence, and mystery. As well as problem-solving abilities and elusive nature.
There isn't a direct association between octopi and a specific planet. Although the one most alligned would probably be Neptune due to the connections to the oceans.
The same counts for zodiac signs, although the traits and qualities of the octopus could align with the water signs; Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. Again, due to their connection with the aquatic.

Found a little salamander in someone's chlorinated pool so I fished him out, tossed him into a stream and he was doing fine!
He wasn't moving and I was worried he was dead but he bounced back quick!

Pacific viperfish (Chauliodus macouni) - Footage by MBARI ●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۞۩๑.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬● This fish is classified as one of the most ferocious deep seas fish for its size. They are iridescent dark silver-blue color in life with pale fins. They can also be a light black color with blue fins. The coloration of the Pacific viperfish has what is known as ultra-black skin to reduce the reflection of other bioluminescence surrounding them to better camouflage in the deep sea. This ultra black skin reduces the amount of light reflected from the body of the viperfish which scatters the light using the melanosomes in its skin that are optimized for reduced reflectance. Looking at the mouth and curvature of teeth one can easily recognize the pacific viperfish.  The fangs of the pacific viper are abnormally long that its jaw is extended out, so its teeth can fit outside of its mouth. The fangs rest near the viper’s eyes. These fangs are the viper’s way of killing fish, the viper will swim at high speeds at its prey and impale them in the process. The jaw of the Pacific Viperfish is also hinged in order to fit large sized prey for its size. It also has a loosejaw that improves the closing of the jaw by facilitating faster closing to better capture prey that may be harder to catch.  Its hinged skull allows it to rotate upwards when looking to attack and, ultimately, swallow a large prey. High speed collisions and force in bites have cause the viperfish to adapt to high impact. The vertebrae that is located right behind its head is used a shock absorber, very similar to an air bag. They are excellent maneuvers in areas that receive significantly less sunlight than uppermost regions. This is accredited to a protein in the rods known as rhodopsin, composed of the transmembrane protein opsin, and retinal.[9] The viperfish lacks a swimbladder and has large amounts of acidic glycosaminoglycans in its gelatinous tissue that are hypothesized to be used as a possible buoyancy mechanism.

Day 2 of dinovember! Meet Beckwithia! I cannot find any facts about it for the life of me so i'm just gonna make some up:
Beckwithia was part of the alien mafia and have all decided to pursue their love for outer space, which is why we think it's extinct, but in reality, they're just vibing in the stars.
