Lots of lovely fishies and squiddies, then, around 1:10, the lurking monster we all know lies, but does not sleep, at the bottom of the vasty deep.

New (or not yet identified) critter, apparently. I vote we name it c. thuluensis.

Enjoy!

Edit: Props to boingboing.net, which is where I found this.

That is the question, yes.

If only there was someone with experience in marine biology on this forum who could comment.

I wonder if El Squiddo ever gets pestered about marine bio stuff at parties the way doctors get asked to diagnose stuff.

Hey, man, you're a marine biologist? Hey, can you take a look a this photo of something my kid dredged up and tell me what the heck it was? Sure was tasty, man.
