Meeting Giants: Lost science, Indigenous cultural knowledge, and octopuses in Alaska

Abstract: The giant Pacific octopus is regarded as the world’s largest octopus species. But how big is that? I will relate a few accounts of large octopuses from Indigenous cultural knowledge, examine some older published accounts from north America of very large octopuses and consider how they are currently regarded, and examine the provenance of the largest octopuses records commonly cited in accounts of the species. This examination is an interesting journey but it may only deepen the mystery.
