Can octopuses live on land

Answer 1

Alright, this may be a joke, but I'm going to respond to it anyway. Yes, of course an octopus lives in water, it is a cephalopod, meaning inner shell with legs. It is a subspecies of mollusk meaning shelled animal. Mollusks store water inside their bodies and live outside of water for long periods of time, but the octopus can only do this for a few minutes before it dies. If you're asking this you either must not know that much about the ocean (hint hint), or you are just trying to play a prank on someone and take up their time in writing this response. So, how's that for an answer, huh?

one way an octopus survives under the water is that it has gills so they are able to breath..
