you know octopuses are more evolved physiologically than humans. Our brains evolved while their bodies did. Incredible stealth technology :)

lol wth.

Ok so.. the color changes are no mystery to science.

color perception can work many ways, like with the rubisco in our eyes, or simply by exciting electrons to higher orbitals so when they fall down its shows as light (color)

these guys apply another different method in EACH of their skin cells, which means its vision plays no part in it. it doesnt need to see what color its surroundings are it just needs to hit some internal "omg adapt now" switch and all its skin cells probe their environments for colors to imitate

cheers
