Yes I have been bitten by only very small squids (previously picked up by a dip net) while I was trying to bait them alive on the hook. That night, fishing from the drifting boat, with the pressure light on, we occasionally manage to pick up several very small squids at the time by the net, to use them later as a living bait for mackerels and horse mackerels. While I was manipulating to put them on hook, two of them have bite me pretty hard on the palm side of the finger. It was unpleasant experience, and I could not believe that the squid only 2 inches long can bite like that. That was my only experience from the bitting part of the squids.

Sorry Tatonka but I have kept lorikeets ,parakeets ,& parrots.The Parrots in Australia are the only birds known that can crack a macadamia nut !This is because they are unique in having a beak where both the upper & lower sections are articulated enabling them to exert trememdous pressure. They can ,if so inclined ,crack the bones in your fingers & toes ! A squid bite is like a loves kiss compared to a Parrot bite !Yeah, I know the feeling. Its like being bit by a parrot with a razor sharp beak.

I guess I’m wondering how strong the bite from a giant squid would be. And, do parrots eat squid?

Yes, I have been bitten by a squid. A few years back I ended my night with one last squid caught and when finished I started to clean them. Well the first squid I grabbed to clean must have been the last squid I caught because it was still alive! I went to stick my finger along the top to seperate it and the darn squid grabbed my finger. It wasn't the pain so much as the fact I was getting attacked by a squid I thought was dead. I may have screamed like a little girl...not sure.
