According to a study recently published in the journal, Nature, mother squids of the Gonatus onyx species were found to carry pouches of new eggs in their tentacles for up to 6-9 months. I hope this disproves the long-held theory that female squids simply abandoned new offspring on the ocean floor.
Let's hear it for the good squid moms.
