Still Waters 47,007 #1 Posted June 6 In the shadowy depths of the Pacific Ocean off Hawaii, a shark battled what may have been a giant squid—and lived to tell scientists about it. The tentacles of the massive cephalopod left golf ball-size suction marks on the skin of the shark, a seven-foot oceanic whitetip. This is the first scientific evidence ever found of a shark interacting with a giant squid or any other similarly large species of squid, which live at depths of more than a thousand feet, researchers say in a new study. The epic tussles between deep-diving sperm whales and giant squid are famous, but until now, no one had proof of a shark encountering a huge cephalopod. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/2020/06/sharks-fought-large-deep-sea-squid-first-time/ 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a butcher block table, 3 pattern welded swords, 2 kukri and a large collection of axes. I'll have a full chest freezer is what I'll have.
