In Indonesia, a species of Octopus has been discovered, who use tools. The Octopus collects coconut shells to make a shelter. This is a rather usual behaviour that the scientists believe is the first evidence of tool use in an invertebrate animal. Australian scientists have caught the whole act on camera. The film shows veined octopuses selecting coconut shells from the sea floor, carrying them under their bodies for around 65 feet and then assembling the 2 shells together to make a hiding spot for themselves.
