archiemcphee: One of our favorite Disney villains is Ursula, the tentacular sea witch from The Little Mermaid. In the movie she’s depicted as an human/octopus hybrid with black and purple tentacles. Recently BuzzFeed staffers Claire de Louraille and Andrea Hickey, with a little guidance from aquarists at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, figured out what sort of cephalopod Ursula would resemble if she lived in specific regions of our oceans. These awesome “scientifically accurate” illustrations include the dazzling wonderpus (if she lived in a tropical ocean), the lethally venomous blue-ringed octopus (if she lived in a coral reef), the transparent glass octopus (if she lived in the open ocean), the regal blanket octopus (if she lived in the pelagic zone, neither close to the bottom or near the shore), and - of course - Ursula resided in deep ocean waters, she’d be none other than the awesome colossal squid: [via Nerdist and BuzzFeed] -- source link
