This squid specimen is a very interesting piece to examine. Squid have two tentacles and eight arms. The long tentacles are used to grab prey, while the arms hold and pull it towards it’s central beak. The beak then cuts the food into suitable size chunks for swallowing. Squid are fast swimmers, moving by jet propulsion, and locate their prey mostly by sight.

A unique and wonderful piece to add to your collection or to use as a teaching aid.

As with all specimens in Lucite, size color, and positioning can vary slightly. Real Squid in resin Measures approx. 2 3/4 inches tall by 1 1/2 inches wide.
