Documentary filmmakers managed to capture an unusual technique of the coconut octopus. The animal threw stones at fish swimming by.
The shellfish scared away uninvited guests from their shelter with projectiles, and used its siphon (an organ that usually serves for breathing and movement) as a "rifle". According to the researchers, they have never seen such behavior before.
