The dumbo octopus is a fascinating deep-sea creature with large ear-like fins that resemble the Disney character Dumbo.

Dumbo octopuses are found in all of the world's oceans, but they are most common in the tropical and subtropical regions.

Dumbo octopuses are carnivores and eat a variety of small deep-sea creatures, including shrimp, fish, and worms.

Dumbo octopuses reproduce sexually. The male octopus fertilizes the female octopus's eggs, which she then carries in an egg sac attached to her body.

Dumbo octopuses are not considered to be endangered, but they do face a number of threats, including overfishing, pollution, and habitat loss.

Some fun facts: They can bioluminesce, or produce their own light, have eight tentacles and a beak, relatively small, only a few inches in length and lifespan of around 3 to 5 years
