of the Giant Squid scientifically known as Architeuthis dux, is
the largest of all invertebrates. Scientists believe it can be
as long as 18 metres (60 feet). This specimen was collected by
Dr Gordon Williamson who worked as the resident ships biologist
for the whaling company Salvesons. He examined the stomach
contents of 250 Sperm Whales Physeter macrocephalus keeping the
largest squid beak and discarding the smaller until he ended up
with this magnificent specimen.
