New giant squid predator found

[glen]

Hi,



Just found the following article on BBC Online about Sleeper Sharks which seem to be brave enough to eat giant squid, even when these squid are much bigger than them! <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />

accidentally caught, you mean it was swimming along and the hook just fell in its mouth cmon

Give the guy a break how the hell can you honestly accuse him of ACTIVELY targeting white pointers on 13kg? Good on him for landing it I say.
