"Octopuses don’t need to eat every day! Our giant Pacific octopus eats about every other day and will eat between 2-2.5% of their body weight in food. One cool fact is that they have a parrot-like beak at the center of their arms. Once they grab their prey with their suckers, they will fold their arms to the center to bring the food to their mouth. To catch their meal they sometimes parachute down, spreading out the webbing between their arms." - Sarah Murray, senior aquarist, Fish and Invertebr
