Once scientists have gathered information, they use it to investigate interesting questions and search for new ideas to explore.

The Giant Quest introduces four methods scientists use to investigate the giant squid. For additional interesting information, check out the Squid Library.

Now that you’ve explored, it’s time to take action! 

Your challenge is to use what you found out about giant squid and focus in on the question that interests you most. Then create a plan to investigate your question.

Think about:

• What you’ve learned about giant squid
• Which specific question you’re most curious about
• How you can search for information in a creative way
• What kind of new information you might uncover

Imagine you have access to all the equipment, top scientists, and other resources you need, but keep in mind the most successful plans might not be high-tech. Remember, a group of scientists were able to capture the very first images of a live giant squid in its environment using shrimp bait and a camera.
