New Deep Sea Squid

Posted by Hemos on from the where's-peter-benchely dept.

texchanchan writes: "Yahoo reports on a newly discovered species of deep-sea squid, quoting scientists as saying the creatures are very different from normal giant squids. 'New species are a dime a dozen. This is fundamentally different' in behavior and appearance -- with 10 identical long skinny arms and a jellyfish-like hunting strategy. 'We don't know of any cephalopod that has arms like that.' --Michael Vecchione of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service. 'I had never seen anything like this creature,' oceanographer William Sager of Texas A&M says."

    Wait, let me think about it.

    Oh yes. Your ability to spell tells a lot about the amount of shit in your brain, and the amount of shit in your brain tells a lot about your ability to classify squids. So there.
