What’s up with all the freakishly large, and/or ancient, animals coming out of the wood work lately?! Have they been super-sizing it? Is it the Al Gore effect? Are we going to see Loch Ness and Bigfoot soon?

Check out this 550 lb, 26 ft long, squid that washed ashore in Tasmania a few days ago. WTF?!

What about “octo-squid”, the half-squid half-octopus that was discovered off the shore of Hawaii last week?!

And the 40,000 year old, almost fully intact, baby mammoth found in Russia. Amazing.

[Update, by Timbotron]:
Here’s a nice brief video of the giant squid (from Reuters and Scientific American).
