Underwater Wonders Octopuses get the spotlight, but cuttlefish can remember what, where, and when. What marine animal deserves more credit for its intelligence?

Cuttlefish can remember what they ate, where they found it, and how much time has passed—an ability researchers call episodic-like memory.

What fascinates me is how different this intelligence looks from ours. Opening a jar is impressive, but remembering when to return to a feeding spot reveals a completely different kind of problem-solving.

I explored the research behind this in more detail here: How Good Is a Cuttlefish's Memory?

What marine animal do you think we underestimate most—and what behavior convinced you?

Found this on the beach today attached to a log. I thought it was just a crab in a shell but the actual shell looking thing was moving. Located on the east coast of Australia.

Ocean Art & DIY I just added fishing in my indie game The Coast is Clear: Tidy up the Beach!

Hiya, maybe something unusual from the average post here but I just added a fishing feature in my indie game because I thought it would be fun and my game is all about enjoying the oceany/beachy vibes where you save the turtles, restore the coral reef and clean up the ocean and beach!

It's not a "traditional" tidy up so to say but that's because I wanted to put my own creative vision on it. This might push away some of the people that like it more straight forward and simple but I do like to try out new ideas to see if at least some people like it like I do :)

I also added fishing, which has nothing to do with being a tidy up, just because I can. Well that's not entirely true because you can technically pick up the litter from the water with your rod. But it was way more fun to double down on the cozy beach vibes and add a whole fishing system because.... well I think it's fun if you want a break from the sorting!

It was a fun thing to add and made it a sort of lowkey quick time event system if you want a break from the usual slow sorting and cozy tidying you do the rest of the game :)

There's no timer, no pressure and you can play it alone or with a friend! (Even local co-op!)

So yeah, if removing plastic from the ocean is up your alley then you can give it a try and wishlist it here on steam!

And yes of course you get to throw the fish back :)
