Baby Octopus

If you watched My Octopus Teacher then you might have a newfound appreciation for the intelligent, mysterious, and friendly octopus. These fascinating creatures do not live very long, but they do release countless eggs upon passing. Those that survive will hatch into these adorable little baby octopuses, which are tiny enough to happily sit on the tip of your finger! Octopuses are incredibly stealthy and ingenious creatures that can camouflage with their environments and squeeze into the tightest nooks and crannies to escape predators. If all else fails, a thick squirt of ink will allow them to make a quick getaway.

Baby Pufferfish

Those that are familiar with Japanese cuisine will know that this incredibly toxic (for the most part) group of fish is a delicacy. While we might only trust a pufferfish chef with the highest ratings on Google, the sea creatures that share an ocean with pufferfish take serious chances when they try to munch this inflatable trap. A pufferfish will generally try to escape predators by swimming away surprisingly quickly with its tail. If all else fails, the pufferfish will inflate itself with air or water, delivering a lethal dose of poison through its spikes.
