Description
The giant squid is a legendary beast capable of feeding on humans with ease. Hunger has been known to drive these normally deep-dwelling creatures up to the ocean surface where anything they encounter is potential prey. A giant squid is 45 feet long and weighs 1,500 pounds.
This slender red squid darts through the water with alacrity. Two large eyes stare from above the creature’s tentacles. Immense in size, this great squid’s tentacles writhe and flash with almost nauseating speed. The beast’s eyes are as big as shields.
