From the Article:

"...The giant squid, the mythical monster of the deep that attacked Captain Nemo's Nautilus in the Jules Verne adventure 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea'..."

What sloppy writing AND thinking. We have actual, physical carcasses of these animal being collected. THEY are NOT "mythical". Captain Nemo and his submarine, however, are both works of fiction. This kind of thing really ticks me off.
