Octopus Ballet
The white octopus in this video was filmed with a high-definition underwater video camera at 6600 feet depth 200 miles off the coast of Oregon in September 2005 as part of the VISIONS '05 expedition led by Professors John Delaney and Deborah Kelly of the University of Washington.  Little is known about the deep-sea octopuses that live in proximity to the hydrothermal vent fields associated with the underwater volcanos of the Juan de Fuca Ridge in the Northeast Pacific Ocean. This video features the Grimpoteuthis bathynectes species. Sometimes nicknamed the "Dumbo" octopus, its "ears" are really fins that help it move through the water. From the Series:Octopus Ballet
