Squids4kids

Squids4kids Squids4kids is an outreach group providing free education on Humboldt squid through classroom and public squid dissections.

We are an extension of the squid research lab headed by Dr. William Gilly at Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station. We travel to local classrooms and science festivals performing squid dissections and educating people on the Humboldt squid. Interested parties can email us to request a squid be shipped to their classrooms. Squid are free, though individuals outside of California will be charged shipping. Humboldt squid live off the Pacific coast of Mexico and South America, thought they can sometimes be seen as far north as Alaska. They can get to be up to 4 ft long, and make up the largest invertebrate fishery in the world! Our goal is to help people learn more about these fascinating animals through hands on experience and spark not only an interest in squid but in marine life and science as a whole.
