	Curious squid are squid in the [[Circle Sea]], notable for terrible foul taste and for their interest in anything new that presents itself in their environment. Curious squid are fished for connoisseurs who want to taste a course that contains no trace of the squid. Curious squid live near the underwater landmass that, when it occasionally floats up to sea surface, is known as [[Leshp]], which was an object of dispute for land-dwelling humans in ''Jingo''.

Curious squid are squid in the [[Circle Sea]], notable for terrible foul taste and for their interest in anything new that presents itself in their environment. Curious squid are fished for connoisseurs who want to taste a course that contains no trace of the squid. Curious squid live near the underwater landmass that, when it occasionally floats up to sea surface, is known as [[Leshp]], which was an object of dispute for land-dwelling humans in ''Jingo''.

One reason that they are so easy to catch is that they often become very briefly curious about the shiny pointy hook that comes towards them. This shows that while curiosity may be the handmaiden of intelligence it doesn't work very well as its substitute.
