ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Taningia danae

Taningia danae is a very special type of animal that lives in the depths of the ocean. It's like a big squid that has really long tentacles that can stretch out really far.

It also has a special feature called bioluminescence, which means it can light up in the dark. It does this to scare away predators and to catch prey like fish and shrimp.

Taningia danae is also very strong and can swim really fast. This helps it move around in the ocean and catch its food.

Even though it looks scary, Taningia danae is actually very interesting and important to learn about to help us understand more about the ocean and its creatures.
