Spy Octopus Helps Friend Hide From Shark

- [Narrator] Blacktip sharks hunt octopus. Fortunately, our spy doesn't smell like one. Not so the real thing.

He may hide, but they could still find him. (water gurgling) Time for some quick thinking. A hollow bamboo shows promise (water gurgling) but its open entrance is far from ideal.

(water gurgling) Our spy may have the answer. (shark swooshing) It's just what the octopus needs. (water gurgling) But will he dare take it from him?

(water gurgling) (water gurgling) Like a seasoned thief, he tries to avoid raising suspicion. Being aware of what others could be thinking is a sign of deep intelligence. A perfect fit.

And just in time. (water splashing) With nothing worth eating, the sharks move on. (water gurgling) The coconut octopus need hide no more.

As a sign of acceptance, he shows his true feelings.
