Giant octopus puzzles scientists
Out of the freezer: Dismissed at first as just another giant squid
By Kim Griggs
in Wellington, New Zealand
What is thought to be the biggest octopus ever found has been caught in waters off New Zealand.
Then I had a freezer clean-out and I had no idea what it was
Dr Steve O'Shea, NIWA
Marine biologist Dr Steve O'Shea estimates the specimen, which was damaged when fished up, would have measured four metres in length and weighed 75 kilograms.
"That's a conservative estimate," Dr O'Shea told BBC News Online. "It is an absolutely massive octopus."
The incomplete specimen has a mantle length (the standard measure of length in octopus and squid) of 0.69 metres, a total length of 2.9 metres and a weight of 61 kg.
