Large numbers of enormous Humboldt squid have been devouring livestock and even attacking humans.
Two fishermen from Mexico were recently dragged from the water with injuries so severe they couldn't be recognised, the squid travel in packs of over 1000 and can co-ordinate their efforts using pigment cells to communicate.
Millions of killer giant squid are not only devouring vast amounts of fish they have even started attacking humans. Two Mexican fishermen were recently dragged from their boats and chewed so badly that their bodies could not be identified even by their own families. No wonder the giant squid are called “diablos rojos” – red devils.
