Octopus has 3 Hearts and Blue blood !

Octopus has 3 Hearts and Blue blood !

Octopuses possess three hearts: two branchial hearts that pump blood through the gills and one systemic heart that circulates oxygenated blood throughout the body. Unlike humans, their blood is blue due to the copper-based molecule, hemocyanin, which transports oxygen. This adaptation allows octopuses to thrive in low-oxygen environments.
