00:07 Good evening, Kapuso!

00:09 I am your brother Kim, who will give you the trivia behind the trending news.

00:13 A colorful but mysterious sea monster was seen in Quezon Province.

00:18 But the residents are not sure what it is.

00:22 Our Sirin will give the answer.

00:28 The group of Eruel watched the question

00:30 when they noticed a white-covered sea monster in their town in Quezon.

00:34 I am familiar with the species of octopus, squid.

00:38 We often see them in the market.

00:40 When I saw it, I couldn't determine which one of the two it is.

00:45 The sea monster is colorful.

00:47 Blue, pink, red.

00:49 Especially when we flashed it with a flashlight, its color changed.

00:52 And when he tried to get close to it,

00:55 the tentacle came out.

00:58 When we got close, we were a bit scared.

00:59 But according to the expert, no one should be afraid of Eruel.

01:02 What the sea monster saw in their basin

01:04 is a type of fish called blanket octopus.

01:07 Brother Kim, why are blanket octopus called blanket octopus?

01:12 Brother Kim, what is it?

01:14 Tremoctopus are called blanket octopus

01:17 because of the webbing that can be found in the arms of a female blanket octopus.

01:22 When in the water, they open their arms

01:25 to form a comical or scary silhouette to scare the predators.

01:28 The difference between male blanket octopus and female blanket octopus is also very big.

01:33 Male blanket octopus are 2.4 cm in size,

01:37 the size of a walnut.

01:38 While females can grow up to 6 feet.

01:42 According to a marine biologist,

01:44 the blanket octopus seen by Eruel

01:46 is still in its juvenile stage.

01:50 It's probably that the predator caught it.

01:53 It was saved but it was probably weak because of the effort.

01:57 Or it could be that it was brought there by the tide.

02:00 It also has a memory.

02:01 It's really not advisable to touch animals in the wild

02:05 unless you have the proper training for you to handle them.

02:08 If this species of colorful blanket octopus is in front of you,

02:11 don't touch it.

02:18 Don't be fooled by its beautiful color.

02:21 The blue-ringed octopus has two types of predators in its larvae.

02:25 One of the two predators is capable of killing 26 adult humans in just a few minutes.

02:33 That's why it's considered as the most powerful animal in the world.

02:37 Meanwhile, to know the trivia behind the viral news and tweet,

02:41 just comment #KuyaKim, what's next?

02:43 Always remember, what's important is what's known.

02:46 I'm Kuya Kim and I'll answer you in 24 hours.
