Took him a while though, didn't it? heehee
many giant squids have been found, but they've yet to find one alive. Supposedly, they live very deep.
Oh, as to that, I am sure Gus is capable of plumbing depths undreamed of by the ordinary mortal - we must but hope he waketh not the Kraken with his meddlings.....
LOL!
No good for calimari, those things. Full of ammonia. Helps them survive the depths.
Oh my. Squid porn coming to a lab near you. This article is a riot!

Quote:"Because the animals are migrating into New Zealand waters to breed, they are very randy," the Auckland University of Technology researcher said.
"The freezer bag at home - to my wife's disgust - is actually full of giant squid gonad samples. We're going to grind all of this up, and we're going to have this puree coming out from the camera, squirting into the water.
"Hopefully the male giant squid, absolutely driven into a frenzy, is going to come up and try to mate with the camera.
"This is the dream - we're going to get this sensational footage of the giant squid trying to do obscene things with the camera."

'Hypodermic penis'
Scientists believe that the male squid literally injects his sperm into the female's skin during mating.
"The two of them mount beak to beak, so you've got arms and tentacles flying everywhere," Dr O'Shea said.
"The male is co-ordinating this enormous penis, and he's implanting spermadaphores into the female's arms.
Some giant squid have occasionally been caught by fishermen
"He uses the penis like a plunger or a huge hypodermic needle, and he's physically stabbing the female's arms."
