Photo by @BrianSkerry A Humboldt Squid expels a cloud of ink at night in Mexico’s Sea of Cortez. These animals can grow to lengths of 13 feet and have a beak like a parrot that can remove quarter-sized chunks of flesh. Their arms and tentacles are lined with as many as 24,000 tiny ‘teeth’ which they use to attack and hold their prey. Historically found in southern waters, climate change and warming sea temperatures has resulted in this species moving further northward, with reports of Humboldt Squid off the Pacific Northwest of North America. @thephotosociety #mexico #squid #seaofcortez #seamonsters
