========== [MUSIC] Hey I'm behind the scenes here at the Monterey
Bay Aquarium with my friend Alicia. Hi, how ya doing? Alicia, what do you study here at the aquarium? I specialize in cephalopods. We are behind
the scenes of the Giant Pacific Octopus exhibit and I'd like to introduce you to a good friend
of mine. It's going to like me, isn't it? I have to warn you. They don't like everybody.
It's going to taste you and it's going to decide if it likes the way you taste or not. It's really strong! They are really really strong. So these arms
are made of pure muscle. So here she is. Oh my gosh. So should I just put my hand in
there? Yeah! So just so you know, that is the mouth
in the middle there. So you want to stay away from the mouth because these beaks are made
for crunching crabs and clams and they can definitely do some damage on your fingers. Oh it looks like she likes you! I'm going to be part of the exhibit ...
