Crustaceans, spiders, squid,octopuses, and some molluscs all have blue blood because they have a protein called haemocyanin to transport oxygen instead of haemoglobin.

Other Eg are:Squid, cuttlefish, lobsters horseshoe crabs.

Anonymous: The blue comes from a copper-rich protein called hemocyanin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to the bloodstream and then to the cells of the octopus's body. Hemoglobin, an iron-containing protein found in the blood of other animals—including humans—serves the same oxygen-transporting function but turns blood red.
