dofleini is the largest of all octopus species by a considerable margin. However, there are a number of questionable size records that would suggest E. It is arguably the largest octopus species, based on a scientific record of a 71 kg (156.5 lb) individual weighed live. It can, however, live in much shallower or much deeper waters. It can be found in the coastal North Pacific, usually at a depth of around 65 meters (215 ft). North Pacific Giant Octopus - Enteroctopus dofleiniĮnteroctopus dofleini, also known as the Giant Pacific Octopus or North Pacific Giant Octopus, is a large cephalopod belonging to the genus Enteroctopus. They may grow to 1.75 metres (5.7 ft) in mantle length (ML) and weigh up to 50 kilograms (100 lb). Humboldt squid are thought to have a lifespan of only about one year, although larger individuals may survive up to two years. Their tentacles bear suckers lined with sharp teeth with which they grasp prey and drag it towards a large, sharp beak.
They swim at speeds of up to 24 kilometres per hour (15 mph/13 kn) propelled by water ejected through a hyponome (siphon) and by two triangular fins.
Humboldt squid are carnivorous marine invertebrates that move in shoals of up to 1,200 individuals. They are most commonly found at depths of 200 to 700 metres (660 to 2,300 ft), from Tierra del Fuego to California.
The Humboldt squid ( Dosidicus gigas), also known as jumbo squid, jumbo flying squid, pota or diablo rojo (Spanish for 'Red Devil'), is a large, predatory squid found in the waters of the Humboldt Current in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. Jumbo (or Humboldt) Squid - Dosidicus gigas
