Dosidicus gigas, commonly known as the Humboldt squid or jumbo squid, is a large marine cephalopod found in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. It is known for its aggressive behavior and has a reputation as a formidable predator.
When frozen, Dosidicus gigas can be used as a food source. The squid is typically cleaned and prepared before being frozen. Freezing helps to preserve the squid's freshness and extend its shelf life.
