I am not an octopus lover. I don't like them. Watch the videos and find out what they can do.

<B>January 18, 2007—</B>This is one animal that can easily cut its losses in a losing situation.
</P><P>
The 10-inch-wide (25-centimeter-wide) native of <A href="http://www3.nationalgeographic.com/places/countries/country_australia.html">Australia</A> is a bold hunter, feeling through the seafloor for meals of tiny invertebrates and crustaceans. But the animal's miniscule size makes it a juicy target for the ocean's larger denizens.
</P><P>
That won't stop the amel octopus from venturing out into the open, though, since it can always make a quick dash to safety—even if it leaves behind a limb or two.
</P><P>
Watch as a blue crab is left clutching for more after facing off with the tiny octopus, and learn why the cephalopod is quick to shrug off its seemingly massive injuries.
