Octopus With different Faces
The most successful imitator of the animal world is this octopus "with thousand faces" discovered in Indonesia during the 90's of the last century. It can look like a stingray, sea snake and mucus-fish. This octopus has about 15 performances on it's repertoire. Like other octopus, this one can easily change color - to rapidly darken or paid. Moreover, it can change the shape of the body and the behavior in order to be less conspicuous or to frighten potential attackers. That's why it is called mimic octopus. One of its best acting etudes is surely a sea snake. When in danger, it tucks its six out of eight tentacles into the crevice of a rock, and makes waves with the other two. When it imitates stingray, it completely flattens, holds the tentacles back and becomes brighter. It releases the water through its funnel slowly and moves little above the sea floor like a stringray. This octopus was seen in the role of the lion-fish, sea anemones, crustaceans, including solitary crab and other sea animals.50 best photos of roads

Most Amazing Animal Weapons
Many animals have their own weapons that they use to catch a prey or protect themselves of being a prey. Here is the list of 10 most amazing Animal Weapons: Bombardier beetleUnlike many other insects, beetles cannot as a rule take instantly to the air when under attack from a predator, so they require other tools to protect themselves against enemies. The bombardier beetle is armed with an impressive defense system. These incredible creatures can make their own hydroquinone and hydrogen peroxide (two very dangerous chemicals), store them in their abdomens and, when in danger, mix the two chemicals to create an acid that heats up to 100 °C (212 °F) and then spray out right into the face of the would be aggressor, making a sound of a gunshot.
