Clip 4 - straight bad hair



Bad hair is an arm posture shown by squid for camouflage purposes, most likely seen in combination with a display from the plaid family. This posture is very variable and may shift into a different posture at any time. The clip here shows straight bad hair as the squids arms are spread and up-curled, but not twisted. A picture of curly (=twisted) bad hair can be seen in the postures diagram.
