The squid that turns Toyama Bay into a blue light show
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
The underground rave scene has absolutely nothing on the Watasenia scintillans. Every spring, millions of firefly squid rise from the deep sea to Japan's Toyama Bay to violently flash their photophores—tiny light-producing organs covering their bodies. They use these frantic blue flashes to attract mates and confuse predators, turning ocean reproduction into an aggressive, synchronized laser light show.
One discovery leads to another.
