The dumbo octopus (Grimpoteuthis) is a bit different than most cephalopods. This genus of pelagic umbrella octopuses do not have an ink sac. Instead, they use their chromatophore cells to change colors, which helps them avoid predators while living in the cold, abyssal depths ranging from 3,000 to 23,000 feet. 👻 🐙 | Science Channel

Dumbo Octopus – Grimpoteuthis bathynectes One of the rarest Dumbo octopus species, known for its soft, umbrella-shaped body and beautiful lavender color. Its short arms are connected by a delicate web that lets it glide through the water as if it’s flying, while its ear-like fins give it that iconic “Dumbo” look. And the shocking part? This footage was captured at a depth of 3,500 meters — a place where the pressure would crush most creatures, yet it moves calmly as if it owns the deep. #DeepSea

Dumbo octopus are famous for their striking resemblance to the beloved flying elephant.
