An octopus in the Red Sea off the coast of Marsa Alam was filmed changing colour and texture while hunting for food on September 4.
Footage captured by a Czech holidaymaker shows the cephalopod's exterior change from rough to smooth as it bounces around the seabed hunting fish.
The filmer explained: "The octopus was filmed during my holiday in Egypt.
"Specifically, the resort Jaz Grand Marsa.
"I started to film shortly after the octopus leaves its shelter."
