Summary

In episode 223, we get curious about octopuses for Finley of Melbourne, Australia, Cal from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Jack and Ryan of Logan, Utah, and Beau and Isla of Rotorua, New Zealand. Is octopuses really the plural of octopus, because it sounds pretty strange? What do octopuses eat and how do they eat? How big are they? Are they smart, and how do we know how smart they are?Visit the Curious Kid Podcast Website - http://www.curiouskidpodcast.com Send Us An E-mail - [email protected] Us A Voicemail - 856-425-2324Support Us On Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/CuriouskidpodcastShop Curious Kid Podcast Merchandise - http://tee.pub/lic/fqXchg3wUVUFollow Us On Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/curiouskidpod/Follow Us On Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/curiouskidpodcast/Follow Us On Twitter - https://twitter.com/CuriousKidPod

0:00.0	Hello and welcome back to the Curious Kid podcast.
0:24.7	There are lots of animals out there, and we've covered a bunch of them on the podcast.
0:29.3	If you had to guess how many different animal species live in the world's oceans, what would you guess?
0:35.4	What if I told you that 230,000 different species have been
0:40.5	identified? But that's not all. What if I told you that biologists estimate that there might
0:46.7	actually be over one million different animal species in our oceans, meaning that most of them
0:52.2	haven't been discovered yet? Aren't those numbers insane?
0:56.6	They think that so many marine animals haven't been discovered yet because only 5% of the oceans
1:02.3	have been explored. Oceans cover three quarters of Earth, and they are also very deep. So deep that
1:08.9	humans haven't been able to explore about 95% of the oceans. This week,
1:14.2	we are going to learn about an ocean animal that is very unique and mysterious, and they are
1:19.6	unlike any animal we've covered so far. Quadruple mailbag! Quadruple mailbag!
1:30.0	Hi there, Olivia and Jacob.
1:31.9	My name is Finley, and I am turning 6 in July.
1:35.0	I am from Melbourne, Australia.
1:36.9	We love listening to your podcast on the way to school,
1:39.8	or actually any time we are in the car.
1:42.2	I would be so excited to have some questions answered.
1:45.2	What are the most dangerous sea creatures? For example, the blue-ringed octopus here in Australia.
1:50.8	We can't wait to listen to this episode. Keep up the great investigating. Thanks, Finley and Mum Camille.
1:58.7	Hi, I am Cal from Oklahoma City.
2:01.6	I am curious about octopuses.
