It's thought to help them mate or even hypnotise prey. These incredible cuttlefish are just one of the many amazing creatures found in the Great Australian Bight. B

Did you know that cuttlefish are masters of disguise? Cuttlefish have up to millions of specialised pigment cells called chromatophores which can be expanded and contracted within a fraction of a second to change the colour of their skin.

Travel journalist Stephanie Vermillion witnessed these cephalopod dramatics up close while diving, but glass-bottomed boats are also available for visitors who want to stay warm and dry while catching the invertebrate lovefest.

Did you know that the world’s largest cuttlefish is found right here in Victoria and along much of Australia’s coast? That’s right, the Australian Giant Cuttlefish (Sepia apama) is the biggest of its kind, growing up to a metre long and weighing over 10kg!

Female cuttlefish spawn in winter, during which time they each lay 300-500 eggs that take 3-5 months to hatch. Cuttlefish po

Cuttlefish Fact Sheet

PBS
David Phan on Instagram: "The King 👑 Australian giant cuttlefish can grow up to a metre long but this particular one apparently got to 1.2m long. Because of its massive size it got too confident and never hid under the rocks like the other giant cuttlefish. It was subsequently attacked and eaten by a pod of dolphins outside of its home 😢 This footage was captured with my @gopro 11 at Cabbage Tree Bay, Manly, Sydney 📸 . . . . . #cuttlefish #giantcuttlefish #sepiaapama #cabbagetreebay #freedivi
