DS dissected squid at seacamp last year and will again friday night at a Harry Potter event at the kids science museum. Part of the "Care of Magical Creatures" class.

Unfortunately, we live in a small mountain resort town... not a whole lot at our finger tips - thinking "we" as in my town, might have a squid... funny. I put it out on facebook to see what I'd gather - roadkill, fish from the market and best of all from my doc friend - a website! Once researched, will post if it's worthy!!
