Common Octopus Reacts to Different Colors

It’s a debate we’ve heard many times before. Do octopuses react to different colors? Fisherman have used “yellow” for years to attract octopuses. This is why rooster’s feet are the most common bait among amateur fisherman when they’re trying to attract octopuses. Is this a myth or is there some truth to this?

Cliff, the common octopus in this video is presented with various coloured cloths. Watch his reaction to each colour and let us know your thoughts.

The findings in this video were quite surprising to us. We’ll see if the results in this video will be similar to future colour experiments.

We'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments. Also, if you have any thoughts on future experiments, do get in touch with us. We’d love to put your experiments to the test.
