Currently, the largest recognized mollusk is the Arctic giant whale (Architeuthis dux), also known as the giant squid or giant squid. This squid is a bivalve cephalopod that lives in the deep sea and is usually found at depths of 600 to 900 meters. Giant squid can usually reach a length of 13 meters, and there are even reports of lengths reaching 20 meters. Because they live in the deep sea, scientists have limited knowledge of the habits and ecological habits of giant squids, so there is still much unknown about their lifestyle and habits.
In addition, in addition to giant squid, there are also other molluscs such as giant cetaceans. For example, Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni, also known as the giant polar squid, is also a large mollusk and is considered to be one of the largest squids in the world.
