the name "colossal squid" is so funny to me because it's like "ok, so there's this really big squid, so we'll call it a giant squid. easy. wait, what's this? there's another, even bigger squid? uh..."

what is the largest squid ?? Thanks !!!!!

The Colossal Squid!

The giant squid is a little longer as far as we know, but the Colossal Squid is much larger by weight! They have much wider/thicker mantles :)

Here's a lovely video from my friends over at OceanX!

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

I spy a giant eye-- the eye of a giant squid! The giant squid, and its relative the colossal squid, have the largest eyes of any animal. Their eyes measure over 25 cm (10 in) in diameter, and are perfect for seeing  in the low light of the deep ocean.

Everyone goes wild for giant squids, i feel like there isn't enough hype for colossal squids.

For one they're bigger, colossal even.
