If You Give An Octopus a Rubks Cube...

Why is it that I'm suddenly pondering increasing the amount of tako in my diet. From the Telegraph

It may be an infuriating puzzle which has baffled and defeated countless children and their parents over more than two decades, but this octopus appears determined to solve the Rubik's Cube.
The three-dimensional puzzle, which became a huge success in the early 1980s, is among toys being given to the intelligent sea creatures to determine whether they favour a particular tentacle, or if they are octidextrous.
Experts believe octopuses use a preferred arm for feeding and touching objects and will test the theory with a month-long observation project in Sea Life Centre attractions across Europe.

The idea of limb preference is interesting in of itself. Humans of course have a dominant hand, foot, and eye. Cats have dominant paws. Chimps have dominant hands. Horses have a dominant side as well. So of course it makes some degree of sense that we can look at multi limbed animals and ask - are they side or limb dominant, and to what percentage.
