It’s the beak! You never had to dissect one in bio? 😉 After we diseected mini octopi and squid in our class we made calamari, and wrote letters with the ink. 😉

  Nope. Never dissected octopi or squid in bio. We did sheep hearts (I grew up in the midwest… too faraway from ocean and in the late 1970s). We didn’t eat the hearts… they’d been soaked in formaldehyde.
