In a mesmerizing video, cuttlefish were seen changing colors to match their surroundings off the coast of Malapascua in the Philippines.

Cuttlefish are incredible creatures that are capable of changing the color and texture of their skin depending on their actions or situations, such as mating or defensive posturing.

All species have eight arms and two longer tentacles for capturing prey. Cuttlefish are characterized by a thick internal calcified shell called the cuttlebone.

The modern cuttlefish appeared in our oceans about 21 million years ago.
