the colossal squids tentacles are used to fight off the large sperm whales trying to hunt it. the squid also eats small fish or other squid that dwell down in the abyss. ============================================================ The Colossal Squid primarily feeds through its narrow esophagus. In spite of the specimen that was studied in 2008, the scientific community defers to make generalizations on its specific diet as no intact stomach had been found. Behavior, including on how the specimen was caught in 2007 in Ross Sea, suggests that their diet may have been composed mostly of toothfish and, in some cases, that of other Colossal Squid. (http://www.monsterssightings.com/sea-monster-sightings/colossal-squid.html) I'd think that it's most powerful weapon is the beak, whereas the tenacles are more for grasping its prey.
Their chief predators are sperm whales.
Approximately 100.
ya
Their brains are shaped like donuts, and when they eat, the food goes through the hole, and if they eat something bigger than that hole, they could get brain damage.
They eat sea turtles(I think) and they eat other small things, but look in the other 'what does the colossal squid eat' questions. This can help
yes they can see forward and back
They capture and eat food to obtain energy.
Squid move by jet propulsion, using its lips to suck water in then squirts it out its bottom.
no seals do not eat big squids.
Killer Whales,humpback whales,sperm Whales And I Think Blue Whales Too.
Squid and calamari are the same thing. Some squids eat other squids, so yes.
Actually the colossal squid hasn't been proved an actual species yet so its hard to say how many, sorry.
