Paul the Octopus : Psychic Octopus Gets Spanish Citizenship

Psychic Octopus Gets Spanish Citizenship

Paul the octopus, who rose to fame with his flawless predictions for the 2010 World Cup, has been made an honorary citizen of Spain.

Since he displayed 100 percent accuracy in predicting the winners in the tournament, offers to take the animal have been coming in daily from betting offices and zoos.

The Madrid Zoo has offered to buy Paul to ensure that he spends his years in Spain. The octopod successfully predicted Spain's win over his home team Germany in the semifinals, as well as its win over the Netherlands in the final.

Spain's last attempt at bringing Paul over from his home in Germany's Sea Life aquarium was an offer for an animal exchange, but it was turned down.

The country's next move was to offer Paul honorary Spanish citizenship. The mayor of a small Spanish city will visit Germany to award him a badge and a sculpture.
