Cuttlefish

The cuttlefish is a marine animal consisting of a soft body, eight arms and two tentacles. It is a fast swimming and intelligent creature which is able to change its skin colour.

It also can use ink squirts to confuse its predators. To move the cuttlefish uses a type of jet propulsion, by moving its tentacles and pushing water through its body.

Cuttlefish are nocturnal; they hunt at night and usually hides through the day.
