It has come to my atten­tion that the endan­gered Tree Octopus of the Pacific Northwest is suf­fer­ing through even tougher times than it has in the past and I have decided to join the effort to pre­serve this unique species. Normally, I’m too lazy to bother being proac­tive in regards to the envi­ron­ment but things have gone too far with regards to the Tree Octopus. Admittedly, I’m quite a fan of cephalopods but nonethe­less, we are doing a very poor job as dom­i­nant species here; we have a respon­si­bil­ity to the envi­ron­ment and we can­not allow such a unique and impor­tant crea­ture to go extinct.

For more infor­ma­tion on orga­nized attempts to pre­serve the Pacific Northwest Tree Ocopus, see the offi­cial preser­va­tion site. For more gen­eral cephalo­pod infor­ma­tion, I rec­om­mend this blog devoted to cephalopods.
