Squid World!
Cephalopods May Dominate the World
According to Scientific American, squid, octopus, and cuttlefish populations are exploding worldwide. A combination of overfishing and climate change has left a gap that these creatures are quick to take advantage of. Cephalopods produce lots of eggs and have a relatively short lifespan, factors that allow them to adapt quickly to changing ocean conditions. As top predators such as sharks, tuna, and whales are becoming scarcer, squids are the ideal species to fill in the gaps.
Massive Squid Population!
As sea temperatures rise due to global warming, carbon dioxide content are increasing, leading to a more acidic marine environment. This was originally thought to harm squid populations, but research shows that the species has better-than-expected blood oxygen binding. This advantage could lead to a significant squid population boost as key predators are negatively affected by acidification.
