The country says the creatures can feel "pain, pleasure, hunger, thirst, warmth, joy, comfort and excitement."The country says the creatures can feel "pain, pleasure, hunger, thirst, warmth, joy, comfort and excitement."The United Kingdom has confirmed what everybody who ugly cried during "My Octopus Teacher" already knew: Octopuses are sentient — capable, that is, of perceiving things like pain and pleasure.

"The science is now clear that decapods and cephalopods can feel pain and therefore it is only right they are covered by this vital piece of legislation," Animal Welfare Minister Lord Zac Goldsmith said in the release.from the London School of Economics and Political Science that found that these creatures are capable of feeling "pain, pleasure, hunger, thirst, warmth, joy, comfort and excitement.

federallamm Octopuses-sustainable farmable sea creature. They regrow tentacles in 30 -90 days. we take a couple at a time for the menu. If we mix their DNA with reptilian DNA then they will learn to lose a tentacle on demand. If god didn't want them sheared he wouldn't have made them sheep.

This is old news. We should already know by now, that all living things including the planet we live on and the universe itself are both living beings. One may even go as far to postulate about Pantheism.

Many animals are sentient. Human animals, questionable.

And smarter than most of the ministers in the Cabinet, that’s for sure.

Pigs probably can too, they aren't as intelligent as these though, however they also said these about crabs etc See

milenaac Breaking: squids & octopus say they did not leave EU. Sue humans for dereliction of duty.

So their sale as food is going to stop, right? Right?

*Octopi

roydherbert I imagine all beings feel far more than we care to think about.

Wow! So it's sentient, as though it wasn't already obvious. Red flag when they say, 'the science is settled;' 'cos its a sign of impending scientific dictatorship. And what of the rights of the unborn humans aborted? Do we need a declaration that they're sentient too?! Stupido!

I have a dog. I remember sometime ago that a girlfriend and I were comparing dogs to people. People were not doing too well.

nature There's that flick, it's like a switch.

This is true of all animals and it wouldn't make sense if it wasn't.

(99% of animals are sentient) Not moths tho.

So then, what are we as A species classified as?

I’m still gonna eat them

Finally, hunh?

I think they are too.

This is the classification for vertebrates. It demands strong safeguards for their use in bioscience.research.

ALL animals are sentient beings!! (So are plants) When did science decide they were not? Watch: 'Aware' on PBS, aboout the consciousness of everything.

Of course they do! If you don’t already know that you don’t know anything

Like puppy’s ?

You MUST watch My Octopus Teacher on Netflix. It changed me.

Do whales next! Then sharks, turtles, seals, eels....

I think my cat is sentient.

What's the intent?
