COSTCO -- Please stop selling octopus!

 Dear Costco ===
Octopus are amazing creatures --- clearly intelligent as demonstrated by their ability to escape captivity, disguise themselves, solve mazes, recognize individuals, and demonstrate emotions that show a high level of brain function.

For these reasons, we the undersigned are writing and asking you to stop selling these amazing, intelligent beings.....Octopus are wildlife and deserve to live in the wild, safe and free from human predation and consumption... therefore, we ask that Costco  not consider octopus to be a food and to stop selling them as such as soon as possible.

Thank you for considering this!
