Octopus has egg-brooding period

Deep-sea octopus has longest egg-brooding period of over four years

Because the young octopus spend so much time in their eggs, by the time they hatch they are fully capable of surviving on their own and hunting for small prey. The newborns of G boreopacifica are larger and better developed than the hatchlings of any other octopus or squid.
