I believe that is a cuttlefish.

e: I no longer believe that is a cuttlefish, having been informed by @mienshao@lemmy.world that it is a Hawaiian bobtail squid.

Incorrect—that is a Hawaiian Bobtail Squid. Cuttlefish have very distinct W-shaped pupils.

Annoys the hell out of me that this is the top comment. Lol
