  • This is a firefly squid (Watasenia scintillans). This deepwater species ascends to relatively shallow water for reproduction purposes. Sometimes, as is pictured here, individuals appear to become disoriented, repeatedly hitting the substrate for no apparent reason. This species is known for its bioluminescence.

  • This piece of an Architeuthis giant squid arm was dropped by an adult female sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) shortly after it came up from a deep dive to forage for food. When I retrieved this squid segment, it was as cold as ice. Photographed in Ogasawara, Japan.

  • Photographer Douglas Seifert holding a 351-centimeter segment of a Architeuthis giant squid feeding arm, displaying the suction cups lining the tentacular club. The suction cups have sharp, serrated teeth that help the giant cephalopod hold on to its prey. I recovered this giant squid arm segment after seeing a sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) breach. Photographed in Ogasawara, Japan.
