A remotely operated submersible recently captured a rare video of a living juvenile colossal squid near the Atlantic Ocean's South Sandwich Islands. This foot-long creature, with a transparent body and glowing eyes, offers a glimpse of a species whose adults, never filmed alive, can reach 23 feet and weigh over 1,000 pounds, typically inhabiting Antarctic waters over 3,200 feet deep.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a Tucson-based 501c3 nonprofit, believes human welfare is deeply tied to nature's diversity. We work to protect all species from extinction through science, law, and creative media, focusing on safeguarding essential lands, waters, and climate. Our goal is a future where the wild thrives.
