Octopus's those little buggers are loads of fun, they also very rarely fossilize but one did apparently! So octopus's don't fossilize because they don't really have any bones and muscles and skin make them up, but this one represents 3 different ancient species of octopus. With that being said i can say that this octopus has screwed up the octopus's evolutionary tree. This is because most ancient octopus's had fins which scientists thought, were lost as octopus's evolved but this octopus doesn't have any fins which baffles scientists. Now my thoughts on this article was that it is amazing they found an octopus fossil I mean I thought they never fossilized!
