I would have to agree with cthulhu77 on the "big fish stories" If giant squid were threatening ships, there would be a lot more forensic evidence to support that. I got a cat that gets nervous around a mouse, but that doesn't mean that a mouse might be capable of killing a cat. Giant squid are a known prey species of whales by the beaks they find in their stomachs. That forensic evidence should be a good indication of the actual maximum size of Archies. I guess it is possible that the archies might outgrow predators as large as sperm whales though. I just have a hard time believing that they could get so large that they could actually be a serious threat to a sperm whale. Besides nothing has ever washed up on shore, or caught in a net, large enough to be a serious threat to a sperm whale. My opinion on that sceanario it is just fanciful imagination. A lot of prey species can give their predators a run for their money, but that doesn't mean it's a serious threat.
