Amazing pictures of the animal in its natural habitat.
The giant squid (Archeteuthis) is one of the largest living animals, and yet we have barely ever seen it. It wasn't too long ago that the giant squid existed in the realm of pure speculation. During the whaling era when sperm whales were being killed left and right, people noticed the giant sucker marks on the whales' skin, and the huge beaks found in the whales' intestinal tracts.
