Best Answer

Squid are exclusively carnivorous, feeding on fish and other invertebrates. They usually have two elongated tentacles especially for the capture of food. The mouth of the squid is equipped with a sharp horny beak made of chitin, used to kill and tear prey into manageable pieces.

Squids mouths are located at the base of their tentacles. They pull food into their mouth with their tentacles.
The tentacles grab the fish or small animal, and draw it into the squid's mouth.
