Scientists Found An Intact Colossal Squid For The Second Time Ever
A team of scientists and researchers in New Zealand on Tuesday dissected only the second intact specimen of a colossal squid hauled from the ocean.

The 350kg female was caught a couple of months ago in the Ross Sea off the coast of Antarctica by a team fishing for Patagonian toothfish.

Pulled from a depth somewhere between 1200m and 1800m, it weighed about 350kg and was 3.5m long from fin to tentacle.

Could they not have thrown it back? It sounds to me like they took a virtually extinct, possibly now extinct, creature and killed it. When are humans going to learn that taking these creatures apart does nothing to further our nor their existence? Even if it was already dead, it's quite possible the ocean could have benefited from it's decay. But, anyway. Fuku.

Wow, a scientist in every bunch.
Creatures from deep ocean depths die when hauled up to the surface.
Has something to do with pressure.
Check it out.
"Throw it back" lololololol.

So much hate on every forum. I hope you're happy in your snark bubble. It appears you are somewhat correct- some deep sea creatures do have this issue. Some don't. Either way, this creature was doomed- if it was alive, it would be kept in a tank to be studied. We have no respect for other beings.
All the best.

Wow. Can't believe I came back for more. I forget that I'm alone in how I feel about these things. I just wish we had more respect for the earth and it's creatures, and I don't think science is helping anything, in fact, quite the opposite. But I'm done. Carry on.

On one hand, you dissect one squid.....they are all the same ya know. And once upon a time these critters did pull down ships.
