Giant squids don't have big mouths. Compared to body size they have a fairly small beak-like mouth they use to bite chunks large enough to swallow out of their prey.

And whales - even "small whales" are too big for a giant squid to attack successfully.

Why do fish have no teeth?

Some whales have teeth (e.g. killer whales) and others have baleen (e.g. blue whales). Baleen works as a filter that catches small organisms as the water passes through it. Generally the whale will take in a large volume of water, close its mouth and force the water back out of the mouth (passing it through the baleen). What remains are the organisms the whale uses as its food resource.


Why don't whales swallow small boats?

Well, whales dont eat small boats because they eat things like plankton. Can you think of any plankton that are as big as a 10' dingy? No, so why would a whale ever try to eat a boat. whales don't swallow small boats because they know that it is not food, and I don't think they could get their mouth are around a small boat, also, not all whales eat plankton
