Who said scientists don't have a sense of humor? World Kraken Day is about celebrating cephalopods in literature and mythology. Two examples are the giant squid from "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" by Jules Verne and the Kraken of Scandinavian mythology (often summoned by Nordic gods and, more recently, by discredited American attorneys).
The Kraken first appeared in an Icelandic story called Örvar-Oddr in the 13th century AD. The most recent cephalopod to gain fame in entertainment is the octopus in the 2021 Academy Award-winning Best Documentary from South Africa, "My Octopus Friend."
Cephalopods are a species of marine animals and include squid, octopuses, cuttlefish, and nautiluses. There are over 800 species worldwide, and they've been with us for over 300,000 years. Marine scientists celebrate International Cephalopods Awareness Days in October as a teaching tool and a call for marine environmental preservation.
