My son and I believe it would be really adorable to rename baby squids "inklings." Right now they are called paralarvae just like Octopus babies. Not only is this name way less cute, we believe squids are majestic creatures that deserve their own distinct baby name.

What makes squids so special, you ask? Let me hit ya' with some cold hard facts:

Every squid features three hearts. They also move through the water tail first instead of head first.

The ink sac can be triggered to release this black substance very rapidly.

The Big Fin Squid species has ten arms while all of the others only feature eight of them. They are also all the same length which is interesting because other species feature arms that are of various lengths.

Some of the larger squid can weigh more than 1,000 pounds.

Many species of squid have a life span that is only about one year.

The Humboldt squid is very aggressive and will even attack sharks in the water.

The only predators that giant squid have are sperm whales.

The Colossal Squid is the largest invertebrate in the world. The smallest is the sepiolid squid. It is less than one inch long and weighs less than a quarter of an ounce.

Squid are believed to be the fastest of all invertebrates in the world. The giant squid is the largest invertebrate in the world.

Even though 300 species of squid have been identified and classified, it is believed there are at least 200 more that still need to be evaluated.
