Octopuses have three hearts, which is unique compared to other species. Unlike most creatures, octopuses have blue blood due to their utilization of a copper-rich protein called hemocyanin. Haemocyanin is less efficient in binding with oxygen, thus necessitating the use of three hearts. Two of the hearts pump deoxygenated blood from various parts of the body to the gills, while the third heart receives the oxygen-rich blood, elevates its pressure, and circulates it throughout the rest of the body.
