Unofficial International Cephalopod Awareness Day is on October 8.
This is a good a day as any to celebrate cephalopods. So embrace your inner octopus and let the world know what you think of our tentacled fiendsfriends. If you have a website, consider writing about cephalopods on this day. Share any links, stories or images that you have.
Why October 8? Hope that one is obvious. Spread the word.
