Look at this fucking napoleon complex havin' squid

Fram Edit: The Humboldt Squid is much smaller than the giant or colossal squids that usually make headlines. However, this smaller beast is agile, intelligent and incredibly strong. Kevlar, which is 20x the strength of steel and is used in most bulletproof vests, was used to test the bite strength of the squid's beak. The squid bit the kevlar in half.
