Field Notes

Description:

Cuttlefish are not fish but molluscs. They have an internal shell (the cuttlebone), large W-shaped pupils, and eight arms and two tentacles furnished with denticulated suckers, with which they secure their prey. Cuttlefish also have one of the largest brain-to-body size ratios of all invertebrates
