Hexapus Earrings

Putting these online just because they're a little out of the ordinary. 😉

English marine experts have laid their hands on an octopus that's missing two of its own: a six-limbed creature that they have dubbed 'hexapus.' Ordinarily, octopodes have eight arms and legs. And should they lose one or more in an accident, they can grow the limbs back, which is what makes 'Henry' -- as staffers at Blackpool Sea Life Centre in northwest England have dubbed their find -- so unique.

Until Henry, the most famous six-legged octopus was one that appeared in a 1955 B-movie, 'It Came From Beneath The Sea.'  As was common of many science fiction movies of the era, the film was made on a shoestring budget -- and designers left off two legs from the creature because of budget contraints.

ps. Squidward has 6 legs
