Previously Unknown Octopuses Have Reappeared.
According to the typical brooding time for octopuses, which is 14 months when compared to the specific octopus species in question, this is an inhumane amount of time to spend in the water. However, many of the octopi species that we have never seen brooding, on the other hand, may be to blame for their rarity in terms of reproduction.
Research on the octopus’ ability to extend its life expectancy might potentially be carried out, in the event that humans go on such a mission. Watching octopus breeding cycles may also be valuable in the study of marine biology, which is another area in which it may be beneficial. It might then be put to use to obtain a better knowledge of the aging process, for example (and, conversely, of not aging).
