Giant Sea Creature Found in Chile
published 07:36 PM - JULY 02, 2003 Eastern Time

Fishermen found the 39-foot-long carcass of a sea creature on a beach in the south of Chile, and conservation specialists were trying to determine if it was an octopus.

The creature, believed to be of the species octopus giganteus, was found near Los Muermos, 683 miles south of Santiago.

The remains weigh about 13 tons.

Elsa Cabrera, of the Cetacean Conservation Center, said that similar animals have been found recently in New Zealand.

Cabrera, who is a specialist in submarine photography, took samples of the creature to send to Italy, France and the United States to determine its species.

The find was originally believed to be part of a whale, but its size, texture and even the smell point to an octopus.

I remember reading a similar article about a giant squid some months ago. Octopuses are creepy, but they look really melacholic once you see them dead on the beach.... I'd adopt one of these ... creatures ... but I have not enough space for them in my bathtub

BTW, these are the sons of Cthulhu, I tell you. They're being unlucky, but one day they'll rule the seven seas! Or are they already ruling them? Arrr!

If its the fault of humans that the oceans ecosystem cant support them anymore then I may feel bad. If not then..well thats nature

It would be cool to see one of them in action but I hear actually spotting them in action under the water is next to impossible because they are so allusive.

:lol Sorry man, but that's quite funny, yet sad....well, bad luck for them!

Talking of sea creatures, I recently heard on the news that scientists have discovered nearly hundred of new animals near NZ. I've seen pictures of some of them and almost all of them have those kind of warped scary mouths and look like freaks. It most be heaven for those scientist the researche on those animals can take years.

It doesn't even look like an octopus in these conditions...

Those animals don't look very appealing once you find them dead on the beach

I'd like to see a giant octopus while it's still alive!

Giant octupus' are pretty scary.

But isn't it pretty exciting to know that we haven't found all the different creatures in the world?

Gives us a bit of New World style romance to know that giant sea monsters are still lurking in the depths!

And a great new threat to pirates . . . arrrr.

I'm not sure I'd like to see one of these monsters in action

I'd probably be traumatized for the rest of my life... I'm probably exaggerating, but yes, after all I'm a coward... Being a pirate it'd be different! Grog and tattoos make you stronger, arrr!
