Original - The Loliginidae are a family within the order of squids. The bigfin squid group, to which this individual belongs, is notable for having ten arms that are roughly the same length.
Reason
Mesmerizing image that I think we're lucky to have. My favourite feature is that you can see inside its mouth - the mouth is where the arms meet.
