Thousands of Giant Jellyfish Appear in Swarms off Britain’s Coast – The marvelously large groups of giant barrel Jellyfish are appearing in the water on the coast of Britain. The jellyfish are appearing in this area, and are five feet in length. The countless jellyfish are just everywhere and never seen anything like it.
photographer Steve Trewhella spotted the jellyfish’s swarms when he was taking his grandson out for a trip on his dive boat. Fortunately, the creature’s sting is inoffensive and can only cause a rash, so the diver was able to take pictures and even swim with them. Although, Barrel Jellyfish are famous for being harmless giants since they’ve only fed on minuscule prey such as plankton.
It is an extremely rare instance for these stunningly colored aquatic animals to swim close to the coast, which is why current sightings have made headlines. Moreover, if the jellies stick around during the summer and autumn, their swarms will end up growing even bigger, since they breed in warm water at a remarkable rate.
