Isn’t the proper plural term octopi?

Technically they’re all “correct”, just that octopodes is the most correct and coolest sounding

Afaik beaks are more like nails, hoofs and antlers in composition.

Nails, hooves, and rhino horn are all made of keratin; antlers are a little more complicated: https://www.amnh.org/explore/news-blogs/news-posts/horns-and-antlers-what-s-the-difference

I could swear some movie or video game taught me re-animated deer skeletons can have antlers.
