    'Octosquid'

    HONOLULU -- Scientists at the University of Hawaii at Manoa will soon have a chance to investigate a creature that appears to be half squid, half octopus that was found in waters off the Big Island.

    It appears that the creature was sucked up in a deep seawater pipeline at the Natural Energy Laboratory Hawaii Authority at Keahole on the Big Island.

    The pipeline pumps cold water up from 3,000 feet below sea level. Occasionally deep-sea marine life will get caught in a filter in the line, officials said.

    Workers call the latest find an "octosquid." It has the body of a squid and the tentacles of an octopus.

    It is being shipped to University of Hawaii Manoa campus for closer evaluation.

    Sounds kind of like a liger. It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic.

    Looks like one of the 3rd of the month leeches, to me.
