Yes, there are octopuses in the Caspian Sea, although they are not as commonly found as in other marine environments. The Caspian Sea, being a large inland body of water, is home to various marine and brackish species, including certain types of octopus. However, specific research on octopus populations in the Caspian Sea is limited compared to other regions.
No, porpoises do not live in the Caspian Sea. The Caspian Sea is home to the Caspian seal, which is the only true marine mammal found in this inland body of water. Porpoises are typically found in coastal and shallow waters of oceans and seas, but they are not adapted to the unique environment of the Caspian Sea.
