The tree octopus is an amphibious species of octopus that inhabits the coastal waters off of northwestern Great Kirav. These octopodes are unique in their ability to spend prolonged periods on land during moist weather conditions in the temperate rainforests of littoral Cascada, Ilfenóra, and Inokarya, and Ixikéa-Qihuxia. These regions have an ultra-hyperoceanic bioclimatic ombrotype, and humidity in coastal areas is often high enough to allow the tree octopus to survive out of water and climb the native conifer trees to hunt small prey. The tree octopus is a highly intelligent creature even in comparison to other octopodes, and it is thought that this trait may be related to its development of amphibious behaviour, though the directionality of any causal relationsip is yet to be established.
