An octopus develops a fascination with James Bond.
The animal, Gamora, earned the monikerr ‘Octopussy’ after becoming 007’s biggest fan during the lockdown, as she would constantly swim and watch Bond when it was presented to the creatures at the SEA LIFE site in Weymouth during the epidemic.
Official Bond equipment has been put to her tank by the Animal Care Team, and the critter has been spotted playing with an Aston Martin vehicle and a shaken, but not motivated, martini glass.
According to Tamsin Mutton-McKnight, General Manager at SEA LIFE Weymouth, “Gamora is an outgoing octopus and is always showing off her flexibility skills in the tank, we can’t believe how Bond obsessed she’s become.”
“The Animal Care Team often give her different objects for enrichment, as they encourage her natural investigative behaviors. After adding the toy Aston Martin and martini glass into her habitat, she’s been playing non-stop.”
“We’ve even captured images of her clinging onto the car as if she’s protecting it from being stolen.”
“We played the latest trailer for ‘No Time to Die’ to her through the glass and she was transfixed. We thought it was only right to nickname her ‘Octopussy’ – it was meant to be.”
