1. Before the first footage of a giant squid in its deepwater habitat airs tomorrow, get a closer look at our giant squid, one of the few specimens housed in a museum in North America. 

    It was brought to the Museum, frozen, in 1998, after commercial fisherman accidentally caught it in a fishing net off the coast of New Zealand. At 25 feet long, the squid is stored behind the scenes in a large steel tank. Read on here.
