Discovering an extremely rare maternity hospital in the deep sea of ​​thousands of octopus

More than 1,000 octopus are crowding eggs at the same time in the seabed, off the coast of California (USA), surprising scientists.

This is also the largest octopus hatchery in the world on a first discovered undersea volcano.

"This has never been discovered before in California and in protected areas and around the world ," said Chad King, the lead scientist of the study.

Thousands of octopus at the same time to hatch eggs in the California seabed are extremely rare scenes.

To get the rare images of thousands of octopus hatching eggs . Scientists used a special probing vessel called Nautilus to a depth of 3.2km.

According to scientists' observations, 99% of mother octopus clutching their eggs lay in cracks on rocks under the seabed.

Octopus phenomenon together to the same place to hatch eggs really rare by octopus is a solitary species.

The explanation of the causes of thousands of octopus octopuses creates an unprecedented sight for oceanographers, researchers say, that the Seamount Davidson volcano area may have warmer water than the other oceans. Other seas, the female octopus came here.

However, some other researchers disagree because the Seamount Davidson volcano has long been turned off, making the water in this region warmer. This is an absurd thing. Instead, researchers believe that there may be another cause in the area that attracts octopuses to lay eggs and hatch.

Currently, the real reason why thousands of 'octopus' octopus come together to hatch eggs is still being studied by scientists.
