That makes for a lot of calamari rings. Did they say how big it is?

There's a bit on it here: Massive squid hauled off Victorian coast - Breaking News - National - Breaking News

Whoa! 500 lbs! I'm damned glad those things don't have the same habits that the Humboldts do. It could make diving entirely too exciting.

I found it on a Norwegian newspaper web site - Vi spurte oss selv, hva er dette? - Nyheter - Dagbladet.no

They didn`t say how big it was
