Many octopus species have been shown to have the intelligence of a 7 year old

So about as smart of some former presidents. Awesome!

Besides the fact that it’s a form of intelligence that evolved completely separate from ours

Precisely what I was thinking about when I said that in jest. But seriously, they are incredible creatures!
