Octopuses make for unusual lovers. To mate successfully, a male octopus must approach a female, and gently probe her with a single arm. He may grab her, but carefully, before inserting his arm up into her body, injecting packets of sperm. After sex, a male octopus is probably not expecting to be probed by a female.
For zoologist Mark Elgar of the University of Melbourne, Australia, an expert on invertebrate mating behaviour, the actions of the female octopuses make sense, given their eight-pronged anatomy. âThe specific method by which the female octopus captures and kills her mate â constricting him with her many legs â is novel, but only because this can be done only by an octopus,â says Elgar. Huffard agrees. Octopuses are a type of mollusc known as a cephalopod, a group that also includes squid.
