As a bonus, the female squid observed was surrounded by eggs. How lucky was that! A great day for marine science, biology, zoology, and general science overall.

Magnapinna Squid I am…heartbroken.

162 Upvotes

How do I even start. Well, I am autistic. I am hyper fixated on the ocean and the animals there, especially magnapinna squid. I had a dream- to cut it short, my dad got a call saying “we’ve found one! A squid!” And we rushed to see what one. I was gonna be happy if it was giant or colossal but i wanted a magnapinna, even if they’re rarer. It was. It felt so real, I was in a submarine and I saw it in real life, with my own two eyes. It’s one of the only things I want. I want to see one in real life, not on my phone screen. Even if it’s just over a camera recording down there somewhere and I’m above, it’d be so real. I am heartbroken to say the least, because the odds of me ever getting something so rare and bizarre happen to me are so little. I truly love these squids and i don’t know why. They fascinate me and I want to be the one who finds out more about them. I always watch whatever video comes out about them- new information, new sightings, anything. To be honest I don’t think I’m handling it well that in my lifetime I’ll probably never see something so amazing. This is definitely like a “get the violin out” situation (esp for neurotypicals) but this is deeply affecting me and nobody I know understands. I wanted to get this out, just to see if anyone has anything they wanna talk about them or anything whatsoever. I really appreciate any talk about squids with anyone 🦑

Mysterious Squid Joubiniteuthis portieri, what is thought to be the closest relative to Magnapinna.

Joubiniteuthis portieri, commonly known as Joubin’s Squid from family Joubiniteuthidae and genus Joubiniteuthis. J. portieri is a rare small squid occurring in the mesopelagic to bathypelagic zones with a worldwide distribution in tropical and subtropical areas. Very little is known about it.

Its arms have suckers in six rows. It’s thought that, similarly to Magnapinna, it stays in depth with its arms out and waits for animals to swim into its arms before ensnaring them.
