Most organisms lie on a continuum between r-strategists and K-strategists, and the octopus is one of those. The octopus lays a lot of eggs, typical of an r-strategist, but also invests parental care into its offspring, typical of a K-strategist.
Octopus lay eggs in caves then watch over the eggs until they hatch. The mother octopus has nothing to eat in this time, and so starves to death. Her body is her offspring's first meal, but in some cases the mothers body will be found by a larger animal, such as the giant sea star, which will then eat the carcase and the baby octopi.
There are current 300 recognised species of octopus.
