Monster squid are the stuff of legend. But for fishermen and marine biologists along 10,000 miles of coast from Chile to Alaska, the myth has become reality.

And their story is told this week in a Channel Five documentary.

Experts believe they may be taking advantage of warmer waters due to climate change.

Mankind has sealed its own fate.

What a pig. The guy's not satisfied snarfing down a giant squid, but he's gotta eat all the fish, too

That is why a well placed hyphen can clarify a story headline.

Marine biologists wear chain-mail to protect themselves from creatures that can measure 8ft, weigh 100lb and carry an armoury of more than 40,000 fearsome teeth along two “attack” tentacles.

Said marine biologists Aragorn Smith and Boromir Johnson.
