The enormous squid caught by a Kiwi boat in the Antarctic is being dissected here as we speak. It took several days to defrost.

I think they were longlining for Peruvian Toothfish when they got it. In a documentary about the fishery, I saw the results of predation by squid (so they said) showing two-foot chunks bitted out of the hooked fish.
