Tentacles

Tentacles are flexible, elongated appendages found in various animals, most notably in certain invertebrates like octopuses, squids, and some sea worms. They serve multiple functions, including capturing food, sensing the environment, and movement. Tentacles are often highly muscular and can be covered with suction cups or specialized structures to grip objects tightly. Their versatility allows these animals to be efficient predators and adaptable to their surroundings. While typically associated with aquatic creatures, tentacle-like structures can also be seen in some land animals, though their form and function may differ.
