In the relationship, it is very important to give respect, respect, trust and affection towards each other. But there is also a aspect equal to all these things, whose partners should pay attention in their relationship. That is Consent i.e. to take care of each other’s consent. Humans are slowly learning this, but there is such a creature on our earth, which does not know anything about the consent! That is why he makes him unconscious before having a relationship with his partner and then does romance (male octopus poisons female during Mating). You must have been surprised to hear this. It may be felt that those who will be in these organisms, they will be so bad. But when scientists saw this shocking method of romance and discovered the cause, they were very surprised. When you know the reason behind this, you will not call the males bad, but will believe that they are doing right!

According to the CNN report, there is a species of octopus living in the depths of the sea, in which when male and female romance, in the initial time, the male puts poison in the female’s body, which makes them intelligent and goes into a state of unconsciousness. The name of this species is Blue-Lined Octopus. Only then does the male romance him and then go away. When the female regains consciousness, she becomes very weak. Actually, the reason behind this is very shocking.

The female eats a male
One thing is common in octopus. That is that during breeding, the female octopus eats the male. In this way, after breeding, the death of a male is confirmed. Female octopus is of larger size than male. Caphalopod species of organisms, such as squid, octopus, cutalfish… even sexual healing in some spiders is very common. In an interview to CNN, Australia’s University of Queensland, Ven Sung Chung, who is the lead author of this research, said that the female eats the male after breeding the octopus because it gives them enough energy to produce eggs. For this reason, octopuses of many species developed over time and their reproductive organs started getting longer, so that they could make sufficient distance from the female. But this could not happen with blue-line octopus.

Because of this, these octopuses use poison
The mating arm of blue-long octopus is quite small. Because of this, they have to go very close to the female. In such a situation, the chance of his death is very much. These octopuses can grow up to 1.77 inches. Their poison is so intense that they are considered one of the most poisonous creatures of the sea. Many people died in Australia due to this octopus. Scientists said that these octopus extracts the poison named tetrodotoxin from the body. In research, scientists found that first octopus goes from behind a female and bites the special part of the body, so that the poison goes into the female’s body. After this, the female becomes nominal and completes the male process. When the female regains consciousness, she becomes very weak. In research, no female died due to this poison. This showed that there will also be the power to withstand this poison inside the females. This is the first time scientists found that these octopuses are not used during breeding to hunt their poison or to protect themselves from hunters. In this way, male blue lin manages to save his life after breeding octopus. This research is published in a journal called Current Biology.
