Monster Squid - 18kgs

hey guys at the museum of natural history they have one really big (about 8kgs i guess), but it is a baby compared to this MONSTER SQUID!!

It would be nice to be preserved for everyone to see...it would surely be a new national record!

LoL, It wouldnt be a bad idea but i have a feeling thats it already chopped into steaks...and even possibly it already went back to the sea if you understand me

It is absolutely a squid. The side flaps indicate so. The totlu ones are much smaller and even color differs too. As Granitu said ... these can be really vicious. There has been cases where divers gets surrounded by big squids and attacked too. They are even cannibalistic. They attack and eat each other quite often. When fishing for these big ones sometimes you'll end up with half a squid on the jig while pulling it up. I saw this during a squid fishing documentary I was watching recently. The indication they give before attacking is that they start changing colors like crazy.

that's a 100% Squid but it would be interesting to know if after growing so much it was still edible to eat.
