Description:
The growth of “Growing Sealife”™ plastic squid was tested against the principles of the von Bertalanffy growth theory. The von Bertalanffy growth curve fits the data well on visual inspection, although the Schnute curve actually provides a statistically superior fit. If the von Bertalanffy growth curve provides a reasonable fit to data, this is frequently interpreted as evidence for anabolic and catabolic changes. The results of this paper for plastic squid are intended to provide a warning that such an interpretation does not necessarily follow.
