How big can the king squid be?
Up to now, no one can tell how big the king squid is. Someone took a king squid from the belly of a sperm whale, which is 20 meters long from the end of the horn hand to the tail of the body. In addition, a dead king squid was found on the coast of New Zealand. Its length was eighteen meters. Excluding the length of the horn hand, its body was more than 2.4 meters. Therefore, some modern scientific researchers speculate that the largest king squid may reach about 21.5 meters and weigh about two tons, and it is impossible to be any bigger. For more than 100 years, many scientific researchers have racked their brains to find and catch the king squid, paid a great price and made many attempts, but in the end they found nothing. In order to catch this monster, people once set up a big hunting trap in the waters near New Zealand, but found nothing. Alvin, a famous oceanographer, once suggested using a submarine to catch the king squid. However, because the whereabouts of the king squid are uncertain and people don't understand it, it is undoubtedly futile to catch the king squid with a submarine. It is understood that Professor Aldres of St. John's University in Newfoundland is the most enthusiastic scholar to catch the king squid at present. He believes that there will be traces of the king squid again in the waters near Newfoundland in the 1990s, and he is confident to catch the king squid.
