Many questions remain concerning the giant squid.

许多问题人在关心巨乌贼。

Tales of enormous squids have circulated throughout the world since ancient times.

关于巨乌贼的传说从古代就开始在世界上不断流传。

Typically living at great depths, giant squid sightings are uncommon and often undocumented.

尤其是生活在很深的地方，巨乌贼通常并不常见而不被记载。

Only in 2004 were a group of Japanese scientists able to capture a live giant squid on camera, taking 500 automatic photographs before the creature swam back into the blackness.

只是在2004年，一个日本的科学小组通过相机捕获一个活的巨乌贼，在这个生物又像黑暗之前拍摄了500张照片。

Most of us will never get to see nature´s greatest marvels in person. We won´t get a glimpse of a colossal squid´s eye, as big as a basketball.

大多数人都无缘亲见神奇大自然的造化之伟力，巨乌贼那如同篮球一般硕大的眼球或独角鲸巨戟似的长牙通常只是照片中的惊鸿一瞥。
