Anglesey: Octopus filmed changing colour on beach

The MCS’s Seasearch programme, which asks beachgoers, snorkellers and divers to record marine life, reported a “boom” in octopus numbers in 2022.

Angus Jackson, Seasearch data officer at the MCS said: “Curled octopus are found here all the time and we get a handful of records every year.

“In contrast, we very seldom receive records for Mediterranean or common octopus.

“The summer and autumn of 2022 were fascinating exceptions, where there appeared to be a boom in the population of common octopus, and we received many records.

“Such booms have been noted in the past, but not for several decades.”
