No, it's not. Although it would be better for our pathetic species if it were.
Cthulhu fhtagn!
Giant squid intrigue me just about as much as anything.
Be sure to not miss the giant squid show on Discovery tomorrow!
Giant squids (and octopuses) are ever so fascinating.
"The stars were right again, and what an age-old cult had failed to do by design, a band of innocent sailors had done by accident. After vigintillions of years great Cthulhu was loose again, and ravening for delight."
So is it a huge octopus? Although dead giant squid have been washed up on beaches...Yeah, because as everyone including CNN knows, octopus and squid are the same thing. Perhaps CNN should think about having this story covered by a science reporter who actually takes his job seriously.
It seems to me that cephalopods such as squid have no apparatus for making sound, so it can't have been a squid.
OctopusesHey, theres children on this Forum
Isnt it Octopi

No, the prefered spelling is as I gave it
It worked for a couple minutes then suddenly stopped before they could get it fully operational.From what I remember, they were bringing the system online, and while it was emitting, it wasn't receiving. It was destroyed before it came fully operational, and one of the biologists on the special theorized that the sounds emitted by the device startled or perhaps hurt the creature, and it lashed out at it. It was pretty cool because they showed a split screen of the teeth from the sonar device, and one from a regular squid under a microscope. While the sizes were quite different (one was 2.5 inches, the other microscopic), they looked identical in every other aspect.
