Description:
This sea monster is real. It lurks in the freezing black
depths of underwater canyons. Nearly 50 feet long, it hunts with its long arms
and tentacles. Its powerful suckers leave giant round scars on those that live
through a battle with it. But this enormous beast, with its huge, strange eyes,
remains hidden from humans. We rarely see it and know little of its ways. What
is this monster? The giant squid. This famed member of the cephalopod group has
a history of frightening fishermen, starring in fictional adventure tales, and
keeping scientists guessing. What is the story of this mythic creature? Why is
it so hard to study? What secrets does it keep?
Clyde Roper, ocean scientist and squid expert, has been seeking this
secretive creature for decades. Come along as he and other researchers unravel
its mysteries.
