Watching an octopus react to an everyday object for the first time is always interesting. It's fascinating to watch them explore new objects. We thought that this is something our viewers would enjoy and we'll surely learn more about octopuses by watching them react to these objects for the first time.
We'll be posting an Octopus Reacts! video every Sunday at 2:00pm Eastern time. We're also going to need your input on the objects in question so get your thinking caps on! We can't wait to hear your ideas for future episodes of Octopus Reacts!

Wake up Sunday morning to a traffic cone in your pad. We've all had Saturday nights like that.
-
I never thought that watching an octopus get used to a traffic cone could be so relaxing. Wonderful choice of music too.
-
Ok, he yields fine.. but those hand signals are confusing.
-
Awww he hugged the cone. I want an octopus to give me a hug
-
He would really like if cone was turned on it’s side so he could climb in.
-
Interesting idea for a series. Would like to see how they react to a plushy octo toy maybe??
-
I love the way he discovers the object then sits back to consider it awhile before moving in to tentatively touch it a few times, then just goes for it.
-
What’s not to love about cephalopods? What WONDERFUL creatures! I LOVE’em all! Thank you.
-
Closer and closer. Then one arm accidentally' glides by and touches the object. Every pass after that, the little Octopus gets a bit closer...really fascinating to watch. Thank you ! 🌺
-
She made that cone her friend! Adorable to watch. 🐙

OCTOPUS: Oh Man, I must have been hammered last night. I do NOT remember bring this home.
-
So many different postures (love the one beginning at 1:40) that I can just picture what may be going on in that octo mind. At least in my anthropomorphic way. Love the “embrace”!
-
When they spread out like that on the wall, is that signalling anything in particular? Is it because they're trying to look big, intimidate their 'foe', or ? omg love those little tentacle curls at 1:57.
-
I literally click faster for octopus than humans- ands that’s because I’m terrified of their intelligence
-
Their movements are so hypnotic.
-
IMO, they are not "colorblind", they simply perceive color in a more advanced way than we yet understand, almost like a separate sense. "Octopuses, squid and other cephalopods are colorblind – their eyes see only black and white – but their weirdly shaped pupils may allow them to detect color and mimic the colors of their background, according to a father/son team of researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, and Harvard University.Jul 5, 2016" https://news.berkeley.edu/2016/07/05/weird-pupils-let-octopuses-see-their-colorful-gardens/

This was adorable and fascinating. You could see it gradually working up to interacting with it. I wonder if the interaction would've been different if the traffic cone was a different size or color.
-
This octopus is especially beautiful...Does it have a name yet? I would like to see an octopus reacting to a tool set (e.g. french key, screwdriver etc.)
-
My first thought is to try different yard ornaments but then I wondered what an octopus would do with chicken/duck eggs. Would it crack them open? Would it eat them? Would it act like they were rocks? Would it care about them at all?
-
Speaking of "thinking cap".. too bad the cone wasn't smaller.. I feel certain that the goofypus would wear it as a hat.
