Three authentic records of rare blanket octopus reported from Pakistani waters

Three specimens of blanket octopus were recorded from different spots along the Sindh and Balochistan coast this week, World Wide Fund (WWF) Pakistan said.


In a statement released by WWF Pakistan, a 0.8-metre long blanket octopus was recorded by Nakhuda Saeed Badshah from offshore waters of Balochistan on December 7. This was the first live authentic report of this octopus species from Pakistani waters. While fishing 45 nautical miles south of Ormara, Balochistan fishermen caught the octopus in their gillnet. Considering it a new and rare find, they released it safely back into the waters.
