3 miles deep into the ocean lives a 23 foot long-armed squid living its best life

Question for mammal-lovers: This pic is a skull of Aotus lemurinus (Gray-bellied night monkey) from the Smithsonian. Can anyone familiar with them give me an idea of what the scale bar is ~likely to be? Just a rough idea from knowledge of how big they usually are
