So what do you call a group of cuttlefish?- @deepseanews - 0 views
-
Octopuses are generally loners. Squids often form schools. But cuttlefish (or seacuttles if you will)…they outright just don't get along with one another. In the video below two Giant Australian Cuttlefish males that are bit cranky fight over a female. They are both flashing the characteristic Zebra "Don't F**K With Me" pattern. Make sure you watch after 2 minutes when they really throw down.
