Rare Jelly that has only been seen once before

Now that's a Jellyfish

Digitalfiend says...

Hah was thinking the same thing - it looks more like a Lovecraft / Cthulu inspired nightmare than a jellyfish.

Oh please, in the jellyfish sighting game it doesn't count if you first had to make a blood sacrifice while chanting in a pentagram.

Plastic Fork Removed From Sea Turtle's Nose

newtboy says...

This is the lucky 1/1000 that gets found and saved.
This is becoming the norm rather than the exception, although often it's a plastic bag, mistaken for their food source, jellyfish, that horrifically chokes or suffocates turtles to death.
The ocean is chock full of petroleum products like plastics, mostly in near microscopic pieces. If you eat seafood of any variety, so are you.

Crab Carrying Jellyfish for Camouflage

drradon says...

Is that a jellyfish or a nudibranch? They are different... and the nudibranch is quite well protected and may impart some protection to the crab...

The result of our obsession with plastic

newtboy says...

*doublepromote exposing how humans have spoiled one of the most remote and beautiful places on earth. Notice how hard it is to differentiate between plastic bags and jellyfish. That's why most sea turtles have a stomach full of plastic bags.
As a species, we should really *fear the implications of the ocean food web collapsing but, clearly, arguing about politics, guns, welfare, collusion, trade wars, and pussy grabbing comes well ahead of actually working towards planetary survival on most people's agendas.

Why Jellyfish Float Like a Butterfly—And Sting Like a Bee

Divers dwarfed by enormous sunfish

Payback says...

From what I've read, they are attacked quite often. They are fairly bony and allegedly bad tasting, but Orca, sea lions, and the like do eat them. Smaller predators can't get through their thick skins. They subsist mostly on jellyfish, which might explain some of it. The predators wouldn't like to go into jellyfish swarms.

How are Sunfish not giant, floating smorgasbords for carnivorous predators? They're like giant pieces of steak with fins.
