Over the last couple of weeks over 50 Humboldt squid have washed up on the local beaches. This is quite rare as these are usually found in California. This kind of squid is also called Red Devils or Jumbo Squid and can grow up to 7 feet long. (Taken from Siuslaw News newspaper, September 23rd issue).  So my husband went to the Heceta Beach, near Driftwood Shores and took this picture of one of these giant, dead creatures. He said the ones he saw were an average of about 4 foot long and they smelled really bad.

The other really cool part of the story (taken from Siuslaw News, September 30th issue) is that one of the squids was wrapped up in a partial US Marines jacket and the high school students used it to carry a well preserved specimen back to the school so they could study it. It turns out that the jacket belonged to a local ex-Marine who hadn't seen it for 6 years. Wow! That is a real strange coincindence.
