Giant Pacific Octopus Multimedia

Behind the Scenes of the Octopus Exhibit

(2.19 min)
Aquarists routinely challenge our giant Pacific octopuses with balls, jars with hidden treats inside and plastic mazes. It's all part of the Aquarium's "enrichment program" for these inquisitive and intelligent animals. It helps keep everyone-animals and aquarists alike—healthy, happy, and stimulated.
