Giant Squid Discovered in Spain

A sea monster washed up on shore straight out of a horror movie. This giant squid is real, measuring at 30 feet and 400 pounds! That’s 9 meters and 180 kilos for our non-American friends. This massive sea creature was dead when beach goers discovered it on the Spanish Beach of the Cantabria community on Tuesday, October 1st 2013.

The giant squid is the 2nd largest invertebrate in the world, the biggest on the world being the colossal squid which is estimated to reach lengths of over 46 feet. The ocean is full of mystery as scientist rarely get a chance to study giant squids because they live so far beneath the surface. What other mysterious creatures live beyond our current knowledge?
