Octopus, they typically go into objects and close them tightly like a shell, and no doubt about legs and slime.
Too many legs
They have zero, actually. No arms, either. They’re molluscs like clams and snails and the tentacles are actually a single modified apendage we call their foot. So, by that, they’ve actually got not enough legs and eight “toes”.
Is the tetrapod leg not also a modified appendage that we call a leg?
That's a problem with the choice of axis scale, not the response. Octopus is the correct answer, because it is at or near the extreme of all three axes.
