Uhhh, why would your professor do this to you?

Most likely because he wanted to get a good laugh care of some gullible students. I likely would've done the same, but then again, I'm a bit of a bastard.

lol, this is so obviously fake. Look at the crappy shadow below his bottom tentacle or the lack of shadow on his head from the branch above it.

I just emailed him about it. I asked if this was some kind
of excersise on finding reliable sources.

Got an email back from professor. I was right this was his
way of testing us on reliablity of resources. He admitted I
caugt him. Long story short, I get an A without having to
write the paper. Thanks for your help.

Today ,in one of the biology class I'm taking, the professor gave us an assignment on this organism he had recently heard about. The idea of a terrestrial octopus totally caught me off-gaurd. I thought this creature might be of interest to the OOT community. Has anyone else heard of these before?

Is this for a junior high class?

What's Photoshop? I was pointing out that it's not a tree octopus, but merely a shadow casting terractopus. Learn your creatures, people. Don't go on that smarter than a fifth grader show either.
