But other sightings were of smaller, or very injured squids washed toward the shore -- or of parts of a giant squid. This is the first time a full-grown, healthy squid has been sighted in its natural environment in deep water.
It was quite an experience to feel the still-functioning tentacle on my hand. But the photos were even better.
Up to now, giant squids were thought to be relatively sluggish squids that stay in deep waters without moving much ... But we found out that they move around pretty actively.
We think it is a much more active predator than was previously thought. It had previously been seen as more lethargic, and not as strong.
