"His body rests in a specially made 3.8m tank filled with chilled sea water between 10C and 18C."

The director of the AUT's Earth and Oceanic Sciences Research Institute Dr Steve O'Shea supplied the specimen for display. "I live, eat and breathe squid," he said.

My guess is alcohol preservaton is more expensive and people don't like the smell of alcohol.
