Humboldt Squid: an invader in the Sea of Cortez

In the Sea of Cortez, a voracious army is growing in number: the Humboldt squid. Mankind is beginning to see the effects of over-fishing top predators like tuna and sharks. Without these natural predators, the Humboldt squid with its seemingly endless appetite is exploding and disrupting fishing all along the eastern Pacific coast. Footage taken at Baja's Bahia de Los Angeles. Voice-over by Travis.
