Critter of the Week: Vampire Squid
www.rnz.co.nz
external-link
The vampire squid (Vampyroteuthis infernalis) might sound scary, but it's more like a soft-bodied floating Christmas tree than a blood-sucking creature of the night. This deep-sea creature has some out-of-the-box defensive strategies: it shoots a cloud of glowing mucus to disarm its predators and tries to camouflage itself by turning itself into a pineapple. Nicola Toki joins Jesse to teach us about this not-so terrifying creature.
