The colossal squid, which weighs 350 kilograms (770 pounds) and is as long as a minibus, is one of the seas most elusive species. It had been frozen for eight months until Tuesday, when scientists in New Zealand got a long-anticipated chance to thaw out the animal and inspect it _ once they used a forklift to maneuver it into a tank.(AP Photo/Nick Perry)
