Animals
🌟 Fun Fact!
An octopus has three hearts and blue blood! Two hearts pump blood to its gills, and one heart pumps it to the rest of its body. When an octopus swims, the heart that delivers blood to the body actually stops beating which is why octopuses prefer to crawl rather than swim so they don't get too tired!
