We’ve just witnessed one of the dirtiest fights to ever take place in front of our eyes. No, we’re not talking about John Fetterman’s victorious Senate campaign of Mehmet Oz—we’re talking about octopuses that have been seen throwing objects at each other.
We’ve just witnessed one of the dirtiest fights to ever take place in front of our eyes, with two notable figures getting personal and willing to get their limbs deep in the mud to take down their opponents in a spectacle we just could not look away from.—we’re talking about octopuses that have been seen throwing objects at each other., the authors recorded octopuses that appeared to intentionally throw things like silt and shells at each other on camera for the first time ever.
Half of the throws also occurred while the octopuses were interacting with each other such as mating or probing attempts. Nearly 66 percent of throws were performed by female octopuses—suggesting that they were annoyed by their pesky male counterparts .

In the line of fire: Debris throwing by wild octopusesWild Octopus tetricus frequently propel shells, silt, and algae through the water by releasing these materials from their arms while creating a forceful jet from the siphon held under the arm web. These 'throws' occur in several contexts at a site in Jervis Bay, Australia, including in interactions with other octopuses. Material thrown in interactive contexts frequently hits other octopuses. Some throws appear to be targeted on other individuals, as suggested by several kinds of evidence: Throws in interactive contexts were more vigorous than others, and more often used silt, rather than shells or algae. High vigor throws were more often accompanied by uniform or dark body patterns than other throws. Some throws were directed differently from beneath the arms and such throws were more likely to hit other octopuses. Throwing at other individuals in the same population, as apparently seen in these octopuses, is a rare form of nonhuman projectile use, previously seen only in some social mammals.
