So, if I was walking through the woods on a nice sun-shiny day. I'm sure I'd pause to take in the beauty of nature, after all, I do consider myself to be a nature kinda girl. I'm sure I'd want to look up at the puffy clouds and blue sky through the canopy of trees (or if I'm still in Michigan, I'd look up for blue sky and be disappointed to find overcast muck) But, let's say I were to look up and see one of these babies in the tree above me.
<--- I would scream, cover my face, assume all sci-fi movies I'd ever read were true after all, have a complete mental breakdown, fear it would jump on top of my head and suffocate me, run away and never go near a tree again. Just my take on the creature. I know everyone else seems to think it's cute. I personally am thanking God that He gave me the foresight to not apply to any west coast, Olympic Mountain Range located schools. I mean, I'm sorry they're endangered. I hope they can get their numbers back up there but I've decided I'll have my half of the nation and they can have their half. Never the two shall meet. And no, the Pacific North West Tree Octopus cannot be the mascot for the school in my basement. *shudders.*
