Scientists have made extraordinary discoveries about how otherwise-solitary octopuses and various fish species coordinate their hunts: fish serve as guides, finding prey and flagging its location, and the octopus uses its flexible arms to capture the hidden prey. This research, led by Eduardo Sampaio and Simon Gingins as well as other experts from the Cluster of Excellence Collective Behaviour at the University of Konstanz and the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior, unveils the remarkable interplay and functional dynamics within these multispecies hunting groups. Their findings, now published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, offer a glimpse into the complex world of interspecies collaboration and behaviour. In the video Eduardo Sampaio and Simon Gingins explain how they condcuted the study.
