Comments

Al Martinez

How many giant squids are there? How long can they live and how large can they grow? Also is there any truth to the old tales of giant squids attacking ships?

John Worster

Just how intelligent is an Octopus? Would it's intelligence level compare it to a 4 or 5 year old child, or is it more intelligent than that?

Stroh

How do squid change color, how do they know what colors to change to, and how are they able to change different colors on different parts of their body?

Mary Ann

What is your favorite squid, and why? Also, what is the coolest thing about squids?

Christa Avampato

What's the most surprising and least-known fact about squid?

Christa Avampato

Are squid likely to be more impacted by climate change than other sea animals, or will they be one of the species that's best able to adapt?

Rhianna Croucher

I asked for this and I am unbelievably excited for this. I'd like to ask how a layman can get into the field and/or do good things for squidkind and also what is something people assume or would imagine teuthologists know about squid that they surprisingly don't?

Rhianna Croucher

Oh also if they have any book recommendations beyond Kraken by Wendy Williams and Squid Empire by Diana Staaf or any documentaries other than Inside Nature's Giants that would be amazing.

Jennifer Overbye

Are squids social creatures? I've only ever seen them alone, but they must get busy every once in a while. With how intelligent they are, do they have a complicated social structure?

Mike Ramsey

Every once in a while, a strange creature washes up on a beach somewhere, and may often be described as squid-like, but of unknown classification. Is anyone maintaining a database of unknown sea creatures? If there's no immediately obvious classification, and no easy way to find living specimens, does anyone research these things?

Brian Edge

How threatened are the Nautiloid populations? They have always been one of my fave cephalopods.

Nina Yankovic

Sometimes my bird eats cuttlebone, which I feel bad about. I especially feel bad because cuttlefish is such a cute name. Do you think I should stop feeding my bird cuttlebone or is there anywhere else my bird can get the calcium?

Casey Handmer

Can cephalopods use sonar? What about electrosense? To what extent are their lifespans limited by degradation of eyesight? Is the podcast microphone a mimic octopus?

Rhianna Croucher

(Soul of an Octopus by Sy Montgomery and Other Minds by Peter Godfrey-Smith are also cephalopod books I forgot shhh)

Craig Minami

The image of Sperm Whales hunting Giant or Colossal Squids is one that unfortunately we can only imagine, what is your imagined scene of how those whales hunt those mighty squids plays out?

Matt Brookner

Favorite fictional squid? (Is there more than the one in Spongebob? Let's say there is)
