Poor, poor Owlfish...
This was filmed by the Monterrey Bay Aquarium Research Institute. This squid has gotten itself a meal which is always entertaining. The squid uses its beak to cut a circular path around the base of the fish's head severing its spine. It also wraps its tentacles around the fish's gills to suffocate it and drags it down to depths where the fish is not built to operate.
