However, more recent observations have shown that the length of these marine creatures exceeds 8 meters. Hands-squid tentacles have the same length, and look the same. It is believed that the length of the tentacles of the squid may exceed 20 times the length of its body. According to scientists, squid use their long arms to grasp or catch the food on the bottom of the ocean, although so far no one has ever seen exactly how this happens.
