Pearl is pink like her father Ted, but unlike him, her face is positioned in the middle. She also claims to be able to walk on land. Whenever she gets nervous or scared, she squirts her squid ink, or "inks" as she calls it. This trait was presumably inherited from her father, who has a similar release of ink when he encounters Bruce and his fellow sharks.

One of Mr. Ray's students, Nemo meets Pearl and her friends, Tad and Sheldon, while waiting to start school. When first meeting Nemo she noticed Nemo's little fin and asked what was wrong with it and Marlin explains it's Nemo's lucky fin, she shows off her small tentacle. She and the rest of the class went on a field trip to the drop off and while wandering off with Sheldon and Tad (with Nemo behind them) and after looking out to the open sea saw the boat. Like the other children, she tries to see how close to it she can swim. When Marlin accuses Nemo of swimming past the drop off, she and the other kids try to defend Nemo. When the divers appear, she screams out of fear, causing Nemo to turn around and she flees with the rest of the class, being protected by Mr. Ray as they escape from the divers.

Pearl returns in the sequel, albeit only making two appearances throughout the film. She first appears in the scene where Mr. Ray is telling his class about the stingray migration and during the spot where the stingray migration occurs in which Mr. Ray warns the class to stay away from the undertow to avoid getting caught in the current and later looking at Dory who was knocked unconsciously by the large group of stingrays. Pearl last appears at the end of the film, where she, Tad, Sheldon, and the rest of the students discover that Mr. Ray joined the stingray migration in which Hank, Bailey, and Destiny substitute for Mr. Ray's class.

Pearl is seen in The Seas with Nemo & Friends at Epcot in Walt Disney World as part of the group who is searching for Nemo and worry about him. She also appears on the coral reef sculpture outside of the Pavilion.

After accidentally landing from the California Current into the wreckage of a sunken container ship, crabs keep shushing Dory, Marlin, and Nemo as they swim along. Dory finally sees the squid's eye and its fearsome beak inside the shadows of a sunken shipping crate. As Marlin begs for the squid to let them go, it chases Dory, Marlin, and Nemo around the wreckage. The squid grabs and nearly eats Nemo, but he, Marlin and Dory escape from being eaten by the giant sea predator when it becomes stuck in a sunken shipping crate during its pursuit of the trio; thus, the squid is crushed when the crate falls on top of it.

The giant squid is later seen in the end credits, though only its eye is shown from inside the crate. However, this may only be for the credits, and thus the squid's fate is unknown. In that scene, Hank hides inside the crate the giant squid is hiding at as Hank escapes from it.

This is Pegasus Hobbies kit of Captain Nemo's Nautilus. The model includes a small base and squid head with tentacles. I drilled out the eyes and back-lit them with small LED bulbs and placed fish eyes that glowed. I also built up the whole of the squid body and attempted to model the bottom of the ocean diorama base. I'm not sure I was ever happy with this attempt but it kind of looked OK...

Gimme Shelter-VERY nice job on this diorama! The scratch-build/sculpting work on the squid is first rate. I have never been a big fan of the Pegasus kit version of the Nautilus submarine, but your paint job looks great! I have always felt the overall faded rust color finish on the exterior was the best scheme and yours is very attractive. Congratulations!

That left dessert as my only option. While hunting for inspiration on Pinterest, I saw these adorable jellyfish lollipops by TheSweetStoryLine. I loved how the height from the stick allowed for long, dangling tendrils. This reminded me I have a killer recipe for cake pops, so I set to work designing a cake pop version of the iconic giant squid from TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES.

Captain Nemo, the mad underwater adventurer from Jules Verne's classic 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, may have grappled with a ravenous giant squid on screen, but these mysterious deep-sea creatures are seldom ever captured on film in real life.

Now, a new video released by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and already causing a sensation reveals the undulating tentacles of a rare giant squid in the deep currents of the Gulf of Mexico. Have a look:

This is only the second time this elusive leviathan has been filmed on the entire planet, and the first time ever witnessed in official U.S. waters. So if you're in the Alabama coastal vicinity, maybe think twice about dangling your feet in the water, for fear of being snatched as a late-afternoon snack.

NOAA's murky, unsettling footage was captured during the organization's Journey Into Midnight: Life and Light Below The Twilight Zone mission, using the non-intrusive MEDUSA camera system. Its technology is designed to offer scientists and researchers a peek into the deeper oceanic regions without disturbing the light-sensitive animals that call those bottomless areas home.

The equipment utilizes red light, which is invisible to many deep-dwelling creatures, as well as an eye-catching "lure" patterned to imitate a small bioluminescent jellyfish. MEDUSA's first-time glimpse of a giant squid was snagged on video off the Japanese coast back in 2012.

This amazing American squid was located at a depth of 2,490 feet and appeared to measure in at between 10-12 feet long. Scientists aboard the research vessel delivered the astonishing footage to NOAA Fisheries zoologist, Michael Vecchione, for immediate expert identification. He quickly confirmed the eerie animal as being a squid of the genus Architeuthis, or GIANT squid! The beast's attraction to the glittery lure allowed for a glimpse into the dimly-lit environment of this shy creature and deduction that it can be categorized as a visual predator.

The unearthly high-pitched undulating scream cut to the very marrow of your bones. The squid had used all of its ink shooting jets of black into the ocean, and had moved on to its second defense: the eviscerating scream.

I had spent the morning collecting oysters off of the coast of High Island, Australia while Captain Nemo fished a little way off. The tide was low and all we needed was a screwdriver and a hammer to pry the little crustaceans off of the rocks. Soon my little Tupperware container was almost full so it was almost time to head back.

I was skeptical, but he expertly tossed the line over near where he had spotted the creature. Expertly he slowly danced the line in with the curious cephalopod in his thrall. It attacked the line quite near the boat and we scooped it into our net and watched a dark cloud grow as the beast spasmed, spewing jets of ink into the sea.

When our friend had emptied his ink supply we scooped him over the side into the blue bucket which I had filled with sea water. He was by far the largest squid I had ever seen, over a foot long with massive tentacles. To be fair, my limited squid experience consisted of calamari and a small flying one hitting me in the head. This was a different kettle of fish, or bucket of squid, entirely.

Bursts of water erupted against the sides of the bucket as the squid tried in vain to muster another trickle of ink to obscure him. A shudder ran through me as I looked into blue bucket and saw enormous watery eyes staring back at me. The animal was utterly alien and brushed against some a primal fear. It was fascinating to watch the creature changing color in the bucket, but the eyes were too much for me. I threw a towel over the top of the bucket.

That is when it started. If the eyes had disturbed me, fear gripped me at hearing the cry. The noise was something directly out of a horror film. Nothing that originated on the earth, or at least nothing from this plane of reality could possibly make that wail. It made gritty screech of fingernails on a chalkboard seem like a soothing lullaby. Thankfully it was a bright sunny day and we were near land, but had I heard this in the middle of the ocean on an overcast day the terror would have overwhelmed me. I had never known squid made any sound before this but now all I wanted was for it to stop.

The Captain killed our captive and the cries ceased. To this day the scream of a squid is unquestionably the worst sound I have ever heard. I cannot find any youtube videos of this dreadful banshee wail, nor am I sure that I would I want to.

The Nemo Mechanical Squid appeared in the 2007 movie called 30,000 Leagues Under the Sea. It's a huge robotic squid roughly about 75 feet long, moves very fast underwater, armed with clamps at the end of the tentacles and its made by Nemo himself to protect the Nautilus.
