Also this week, Souce on April 23, 2026 answered a disturbing question, because apparently something similar to the Kraken research published, a gigantic octopus, has existed. This research was published in Japan and the researchers analyzed the fossil jaws or beaks of fin octopuses, enormous fin octopuses that lived between 100 to 72 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous, the time of the dinosaurs.

These beaks were found mainly in Japan and on Vancouver Island, because of course, octopuses do not have bones, but they have beaks, they have a very hard structure, it is a golden-shaped beak, that is, if one of these octopus captures you, it will strangle you with its tentacles, but then it will eat you and tear you to pieces with this beak.

In the image below, you have a diver who has gone into a time capsule and has traveled to the past, we have the giant fish, the mosasaur, and in general it shows several dinosaurs from that time in scale, researchers have cataloged the species of two prehistoric octopuses that lived in that time of the Jurassic. One would be the small one, the Jeletzkyi, which would be the “small” pulp that lived between 100 and 72 million years and measured from 3 to 8 m, which would already be a huge octopus, it would be the size of a car to the size of a camper van and then the beast, the 17 m mosasaurs, would have a very bad time against this other one, the Nanaimoteuthis, which lived between 86 and 72 million years ago, it was colossal

Researchers believe that it measured 19 m and weighed several tons, it would be as big as an adult sperm whale. There are currently giant squids, the largest is the colossal squid, which is an invertebrate that can reach 9 to 14 m in total length, but of course, including the tentacles, the weight does not reach half a ton.

There is some estimate that there may be some specimen of these in the depths because they live at great depths and we do not know everything that is down there, which may be a little larger and reach 600 or 700 kg, but even so the structure of a squid is much more elongated and stylized, octopuses, on the other hand, are much more compact and muscular, it would be which would be the squid or a horse with that of a rhinoceros, which would be the octopus, this means that the body density of the octopus at similar sizes, the octopus would weigh much more, we would be talking about the order of tons.

In addition, these colossal squids have another characteristic that makes them safer for humans and that is that they live in the deepest depths, their blood and tissues are full of ammonia and they are practically extraterrestrial, they are extraterrestrial beings compared to those we live here on the surface because of how strange they are and because of their biology, they have an extreme adaptation that allows them to survive in the cold and total darkness and at such a tremendous depth, 2000 m deep or it is believed even more, but it also makes them very vulnerable to the changes in pressure, in fact, the few specimens that have reached the surface were already dead or dying, however, if a giant octopus like this had survived, a 19 m Cretaceous octopus, the history of humanity would have been very different, because these bugs can live on the surface and on top of that their level of intelligence, if it is like that of current octopuses, would be enormous.

It is one of the most intelligent animals that exist, in addition, it is believed that with that size it would also live many more years, because one of the circumstances of current octopuses is that they live for only a few years, another advantage for humans is that current octopuses are solitary animals, except in a very rare case, if they were to build colonies, octopuses could be a species to take into account as a future civilization on this planet, because their level of intelligence is truly quite astonishing.
