I’m glad domestic dogs, cats, and coyotes are less discreet. There’d be a lot of screaming and pant-wetting if they were that gifted.

Coyotes? Are you of the desert?
Octopus confirmed using Klingon cloaking device.
Now *that* is impressive.
The obvious question: is this real? The slo-mo bit where the octopus changes color looks slightly faked. Of course I’d like to believe it’s real because it’s all too impressive.
If it IS real, I think I would’ve died of a heart attack had I been the person operating the camera.
OK, after watching it about 20 times I’d say it’s fake; very well-made fake, though.
i don’t think it’s a fake….
sometimes i’ve seen octopus like this, and they always do the same….
this is obviously crap!
booga booga doesn’t know much about the octopus by the sounds of it…
not fake at all. here’s the guy that made the video.

It’s fake. It doesn’t only change color, it starts out with a coral covered skin. The coral vanishes when he changes. That’s not color change, that’s morphing.
Octopus and cuttlefish will morph skin and change color, theirs skin can change texture at will. The color change is also quite amazing. As a seasoned scuba-diver i’ve seen the phenomen in a occasions.
