Fascinating Jellyfish Facts

Jellyfish facts and photos

🪼 Jellyfish stings are fairly common problems for people swimming, wading or diving in oceans. The long tentacles trailing from the jellyfish can inject venom from thousands of microscopic barbed stingers. Most often jellyfish stings cause instant pain and inflamed marks on the skin. Some stings may cause more whole-body (systemic) illness. And in rare cases they’re life-threatening. Most jellyfish stings get better over a few days or weeks. Severe reactions likely need emergency medical care.
