The kraken is real...

Or a little fresh-squeezed ant on your salad?

It's made from mostly nectar, and a bit of bee saliva. Not the actual bee though.

Would you?
 
Sure, if I didn't have vinegar. It would have to be those big black ants, though.
 
I won't.

Anyways, back on topic. How come people haven't ever gotten a live giant squid on camera before?

Due to the extreme depths that they live in, AFAIK.

Though there must be other reasons as well, some of which I am too lazy to post right now, others that I don't actually know...
 
But people have explored extreme depths though, with the Alvin, and when they were exploring the Titanic. I don't think they are extreemly rare, and why didn't they try the camera thing before?

just becaus epeople have gone down to the depth that such animals live at by no means garuntess that they will see such an animal, or any trace of it at all.
 
I don't think they have really *explored* the deep ocean. Sent a few submersibles down here and there, that's it. And the cameras on those things only work within a few dozen feet, due to the darkness. Even if giant squid are fairly common, I don't think the odds would be high for any particular trip to be successful if you're just searching at random.
 
And it's not like the things stay put waiting to be found... You have to find a place where they actually live before you'll find one floating around.
