With its immense tentacles and gigantic eyes, the giant squid is one of the most mysterious creatures of the deep sea. Long considered a legend, it is now recognized as one of the most impressive invertebrates on the planet.
Amazing fact: the giant squid can measure more than 10 meters long, and some specimens even reach 15 meters! Its two main tentacles, armed with suction cups with hooks, allow it to capture its prey in the darkness of the abyss. Its eyes, which can reach 30 cm in diameter, are among the largest in the animal kingdom and give it exceptional vision in the depths. A formidable predator, it feeds on fish and other cephalopods, but it is also the favorite prey of sperm whales.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the giant squid: long tentacles, streamlined body and realistic details. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories in the depths or to educate children about the still hidden mysteries of the oceans.
