Red devil squid have a forbidding name for a reason. They can be pretty scary to their prey, ripping them apart with their incredibly sharp beak! Also called jumbo squid because of their size, these aggressive mollusks are effective predators with some terrifying body parts. An eye as large as a pool ball, eight arms with up to 200 suckers, and two very long barbed tentacles prepare red devil squid for the hunt in the deep, dark ocean. Readers will feel like marine biologists as they learn even more fascinating facts about these fierce and fascinating ocean beasts. - Provided by publisher.
