An adorable piglet squid has been spotted in its natural home deep in the Pacific Ocean by a team of passing researchers. The inquisitive animal was captured on camera by the E/V Nautilus team exploring the Palmyra Atoll earlier this month. They spotted it at 4,500ft (1,385m) below sea level and paused to enjoy the moment. #PicShow #WorldNews | CCTV
