Its not a Nautilus

[leastlikely]

@journeyquest1 I know. Cuttlefish and nautiluses are both in the cephalopod class, but entirely different orders. I'm not sure why he referred to it as a nautilus, because a) there was a sign that said cuttlefish and b) there's a very distinct difference in that nautiluses have hard outer shells. Mostly though, there was a sign that said cuttlefish. :P

@leastlikely Ya, they look like they could be related. But arent we all relatd in some way? I hear they are as intelligent as a dog?

[leastlikely]

@journeyquest1 to be honest I don't know a whole lot about cuttlefish, but from what I understand they are quite intelligent, yes! I mean, you and I can't change our skin color at will... that must take a lot of brain power :)

@journeyquest1 The video is obviously taken at an aquarium, and the guy saying "hey cool a nautilus" was probably at a different exhibit, looking at a nautilus.

It seems sad. I think Cuttlefish may be more intelligent than the great apes, excluding humans. Putting them in a prison is fucked up.
