But other squid experts point out not all cephalopods may do well in warming conditions. Steve O’Shea, a senior research fellow at Auckland University in New Zealand, says squid that reside mostly in surface waters may be more flexible than those that hover in the ocean’s permanently chilly deep depths. And cephalopods that hang out in colder regions of the globe, like the colossal squid (the largest known squid that has been found off the coast of Antarctica), may be more vulnerable to temperature change.

“A warming of the oceans could also result in the demise of cold-water, deep-sea species of squid,” he said[/quote]

so which squid are you, fella? :smiley:

I cant imagine him being flexible. Must be a shallow water creature.

Ah ha! Now that seems like a better description.

Oh well, if there has to be a demise of Da Squid, lets hope he doesn’t make a big splash about it like Broon Ale, or get washed back up on the beach like Hexuan.
