Giant Squid

by Mary Heath

Giant squid live in waters off southern Australia. Zoologists at the Tasmanian Museum study the invertebrates. Giant squid are called colossal squid. Giant squid live in waters off New Zealand, too. Giant squid contain high levels of ammonia. Recently, a giant squid weighing 550 pounds was found on an Australian beach. The dead squid was 26 feet long from the tip of its body to the end of its tentacles. Giant squid are not common in other parts of the world. Although some people eat squid, scientists said the giant squid would not taste very good. People eat squid called calamari.

Which of these sentences should be added to the passage as a supporting detail?

A.Sharks and other marine life share the waters off southern Australia.

B.The giant squid was shorter than a train.

C.The giant squid measures three feet across at its widest point.
