A dying octopus in a Southern California aquarium is receiving an outflowing of love and well wishes as she spends her final days pouring her last energy into caring for her eggs. The giant Pacific octopus named Ghost laid eggs earlier this week and entered the last phase of her life cycle. She will neglect her needs to tend to the eggs, which are unfertilized and will never hatch. The Aquarium of the Pacific said in an Instagram post that she “has made an eight-armed impression on all of our hearts.”
