An octopus at New Zealand’s National Aquarium escaped its tank and straight into the ocean, it was reported.
Inky, a common male octopus, slipped through a small gap on the aquarium floor “and down a seawater runoff pipe to Hawke’s Bay,” CNN reported.
“He managed to get out and two-and-a-bit meters (around 8 ft) away was a drain which he managed to escape through,” said Rob Yarrell, the manager of the National Aquarium of New Zealand.
Their bodies are squishy but they have a beak, like a parrot.
