1179:"The octopus stares into the camera for a quick selfie. RUDNAYA BAY, RUSSIA: THIS PHOTOGRAPHER snapped a selfie with the world?s largest OCTOPUS - which measures sixteen-foot long. In one image, the 88-pound giant Pacific octopus approached the diver for a quick photo opportunity. In another, the intelligent creature locked eyes with the camera as it surveyed its surroundings. Photographer Andrey Shpatak (59), from Russia, was diving in the Sea of Japan near Rudnaya Bay, Russia, when he came across this giant Pacific octopus 65-foot below the ocean?s surface. This is the largest breed of octopus in the world. The giant Pacific octopus is also the longest-living species of octopus although they still only live to be around five-years-old ? dying shortly after breeding. They?re highly intelligent creatures and can change their pigmentation in one-tenth of a second to match their surroundings. In lab tests, giant Pacific octopuses have also opened jars and solved maze puzzles. mediadrumworld.com / Andrey Shpatak,Image: 557499749, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: , Model Release: no, Credit line: mediadrumworld.com / Andrey Shpa / Media Drum World / Profimedia 32:"mediadrumworld.com / Andrey Shpa
