Recently published photos of the first living giant squid (Architeuthis) even got a mention in the New York Times today. There was also a very interesting quote in the article:
"Monster lovers take heart. Scientists argue that so much of the planet remains unexplored that new surprises are sure to show up; if not legendary beasts like the Loch Ness monster or the dinosaur-like reptile said to inhabit Lake Champlain, then animals that in their own way may be even stranger."
