Lurking... Lurking... The Squid!

Scientists have found a huge new squid. They're calling it Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni, or familiarly, "the Colossal Squid". I especially like the BBC's graphic comparing a Sperm Whale, a Giant Squid, and the Colossal Squid to a London bus. Hint--the squid is faster, too.
