Smart Octopuses

Octopuses have been known to show that they're pretty smart, but some newly filmed octopus behavior has scientists even more amazed. The footage shows an octopus carrying a coconut shell with it to use as a shelter. The critter holds the shell against its body and "walks" on its eight tentacles across the ocean floor, then hops inside the shell when it feels the need to hide.

Check out the footage here.
