Dumbo Octopus: July 5, 2019

Our #ImageOfTheDay was of a dumbo octopus and now we have video of another dumbo. That's right -- we're making it a Double Dumbo #OctopusFriday!

The one in the video was seen during the Windows to the Deep 2019: Exploration of the Deep-sea Habitats of the Southeastern United States expedition while exploring off the coast of North Carolina at approximately 900 meters (2,590 feet).
