Chimera Posted August 16, 2008 Squids!! the colossal ones, the giant ones, the humboldt ones, the tiny ones i hate them, i hate them, i hate them all WHAT the Hell is THAT!!! imagine taking a dip in the sea and suddenly this thing graps you and then stares you down before he kills you....woahhhh never liked them, never will, not even.. thank god the likelyhood of anything remotely resembling tentacles ever grabbing me is 1 in a trillion (because i avoid any contact with the Sea like the plague ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Urban Posted August 16, 2008 This undated image issued by Michael Moore of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts, Thursday, Dec. 23, 2004 shows a sperm whale. Sperm whales routinely dive more than two miles (three kilometers) below the ocean surface to hunt for giant squid, but a study shows the huge mammals suffer a chronic loss of bone tissue from the bends, a painful condition well-known to human divers Those scars are from giant squids! Researchers once found on the body of a sperm whale a few Octopus suction-cup marks that were about 2 meters in diameter!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miriam1 Posted August 17, 2008 ^ It must be photoshoped or some sort of a fake model....the eye is simply toooo large! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chimera Posted August 19, 2008 It's REAL sisters but it was a 'rare' catch and this squid currently holds the record in eye size {source of the image} The giant squid has the largest eye in the natural world. Although squid's eyes evolved on a separate branch of the tangle bank of life, they are remarkably like ours, except that they don't have the blind spot that human eyes have (Hack #16). This picture is from a book 'Extreme Nature' by Mark Carwardine (which the Guardian Weekend ran a piece on two weeks ago). This immature female is 17 foot long, but they go up to 49 foot apparently. http://www.mindhacks.com/blog/2005/09/giant_squid_woah.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
