Looking for an Octopus: UK

[Kit Ondaatje Rolls]

Hello! I am a masters student studying Biodesign at Central Saint Martins, London and I am wondering whether anyone in the UK - or specifically in London/SW England - has an octopus I could come and visit after this lockdown?? I LOVE THEM and hence have chosen to do my thesis and likely my PhD all about them. If you do, or if you know anyone who does please get in contact!
Thank you!!

I don't know anyone in the UK personally but it looks like the Sea Life aquarium in London has a common octopus or two- maybe you could go there once the lockdown is lifted!

My apologies for not being more help.

Okay, thanks for the heads up! I've been but none of their staff knew where the octopus had been moved to... Very typical octopuses really!
