Squid, any of more than 300 species of 10-armed cephalopods can be found in both coastal and oceanic waters.
Squids have elongated tubular bodies and short compact heads. Two of the 10 arms have developed into long slender tentacles with expanded ends and four rows of suckers with toothed, horny rings. The body of most squids is strengthened by a feathery-shaped internal shell composed of a horny material. Squid eyes, almost as complex as human eyes, are usually set into the sides of the head.
The smallest squid is the Southern pygmy squid males grow only to about 1.6 cm in length.
The largest squids—giant squids and colossal squids—are also the largest living invertebrates. The largest recovered giant squids have measured nearly 13 metres) long, but there are unconfirmed reports of individuals more than 20 metres in length.
All of which has absolutely nothing to do with this podcast – The Squid of Despair
