Catching and releasing the light
The Hawaiian bobtail squid (Euprymna scolopes) is a nocturnal animal that spends its days buried in the sand, away from the gaze of diurnal predators. At night, the animal leaves its cozy resting place to search for food, but it still must avoid any creatures that are looking for their own meal. The squid is barely an inch long, not counting its limbs – but with a nickname like bobtail, there...
