The same is true of the chitinous gladius of squid [83] and octopuses. [84] Cirrate octopods have arch-shaped cartilaginous fin supports, [85] which are sometimes referred to as a "shell vestige" or "gladius". [86] The Incirrina have either a pair of rod-shaped stylets or no vestige of an internal shell, [87] and some squid also lack a gladius ...
Cuttlefish eat small molluscs, crabs, shrimp, fish, octopuses, worms, and other cuttlefish. Their predators include dolphins, larger fish (including sharks), seals, seabirds, and other cuttlefish. The typical life expectancy of a cuttlefish is about 1–2 years. Studies are said to indicate cuttlefish to be among the most intelligent ...
The colossal squid (Mesonychoteuthis ... Many other animals also feed on colossal squid, ... while the other predators only eat juveniles or young adults. ...
The photographs showed an aggressive hunting pattern by the baited squid, leading to it impaling a tentacle on the bait ball's hooks. This may disprove the theory that the giant squid is a drifter which eats whatever floats by, rarely moving so as to conserve energy. It seems the species has a much more aggressive feeding technique.
A molluscivore is a carnivorous animal that specialises in feeding on molluscs such as gastropods, bivalves, brachiopods and cephalopods.Known molluscivores include numerous predatory (and often cannibalistic) molluscs, (e.g.octopuses, murexes, decollate snails and oyster drills), arthropods such as crabs and firefly larvae, and, vertebrates such as fish, birds and mammals.

This fresh squid is 산 오징어 (san ojingeo) (also with small octopuses called nakji). The squid is served with Korean mustard, soy sauce, chili sauce, or sesame sauce. It is salted and wrapped in lettuce or perilla leaves. Squid is also marinated in hot pepper sauce and cooked on a pan (nakji bokum or ojingeo bokum/ojingeo-chae-bokkeum ...
Like all squid, the Gould's squid is a predator. It eats smaller fish, such as barracudas, as well as other squids, [2] and cannibalism has sometimes been observed. Prey is caught by the tentacles, moved towards the head, and then chewed and swallowed by the sharp beak underneath the tentacles.
They have a seemingly simple brain, not the large complex brains of octopus, cuttlefish and squid, and had long been assumed to lack intelligence. But the cephalopod nervous system is quite different from that of other animals, and recent experiments have shown not only memory, but a changing response to the same event over time. [31] [32] [33]
