Interesting wildlife documentary - octopus

I've seen that, it's amazing, they are such intelligent creatures, and the fact their brain is spilt between the crown and each tentacle. It's awful that people fish them and treat them with cruelty like boiling them alive, when they are so sensitive. There was talk of octopus farms in this country where they would just electrocute the pools to kill them all easily and cheaply, nothing to do if it was humane or not. 

The kids were watching CrunchLabs with Mark Rober, and engineer, and he had one, but they found out that the pet trade just pulled them from the sea, so he rehabilitated it to feed itself with engineered puzzles and released it back to the spot they pulled it from. He said octopus are the closest thing to aliens on earth as they evolved intelligence independently from most animal anatomy.

I had a book on them and how their biology and nervous system is quite different. It wasn't as much info as I'd hoped for, but it was still quite interesting. They evolved a long time ago and have been on a different path for a long time.
