This moment comes from 2016 offshore of Los Angeles investigating the Southern California Margin. This (now famous) stubby squid was spotted by ROV Hercules at a depth of 900 meters (2,950 feet). Related to the cuttlefish, this species spends life on the seafloor, activating a sticky mucus jacket and burrowing into the sediment to camouflage, leaving their eyes poking out to spot prey like shrimp and small fish.
