European Common Cuttlefish
This cuttlefish is a predator, and can sometimes indulge in cannibalism. They can change the color and texture of their skin, and stalk their prey. Found in eastern Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea, between West Africa and the Baltic Sea. They're restricted by water temperature, so when the waters warm up, their range increases.

Chambered Nautilus
Usually lives in tropical waters where the slopes of coral reefs go into deep waters. During the day, it stays in dark, cool waters at depths from and comes up to shallower waters at night to feed. They find food by smelling the ocean currents for any dead or dying prey.

Blue- ringed Octopus
This type of octopus is known to live in shallow waters and tide pools off the coast of Australia and the western Pacific Ocean. This creature is very deadly because the salivary glands have colonies of bacteria that
produce tetrodotoxin. The blue rings are a warning to anything around it that it will attack. Humans keep them in aquariums.
