The string jellyfish is not really one animal. It is a colony of tiny linked creatures that look and move like a single long string in the sea. It lives in oceans around the world, and its stinging tentacles can hurt people who touch them.1

Pagina iniziala
It lives in the open midwater of the ocean, far from the seabed, and is often found near the surface. In recent years large numbers have appeared around fish farms in Norway and Scotland, and in waters off South Devon and South East Cornwall.1

Tge mangia el?
It acts like a drift net, spreading its tentacles wide to catch plankton. It also preys on farmed salmon in some places.1

  • A long central string, up to 3 m in total length1
  • Groups of pink and white tentacles that bunch together or spread out along the string1

  • Its colony is only 2 to 5 cm wide across1

Its tentacles can sting people painfully.1

Sch'el piztga

  • Va or da l'aua e prenda davent las tentaclas (cun manetschas u cun in tschop).
  • Tar medusas cubicas tropicalas: versa aschieu sin las piztgadas durant almain 30 secundas, clama agid e sajas pront da far ina reanimaziun. Tar galeras portugaisas e las bleras autras: lava cun aua da mar, lura cun aua chauda cunter las dolurs.

Clama adina l'emprim tes numer d'urgenza (112, 000, 911). Quai è in cussegl general d'emprim agid, betg in cussegl medicinal. Basa da l'emprim agid

Resta en segirezza

  • Na tutga, na piglia e na tizza mai in animal selvadi, gnanc in pitschen, ed era sch'el para da durmir u d'esser mort.
  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.
  • Sch'in tal animal ta piztga: resta calm, na ta mova betg, clama tes numer d'urgenza (112, 000, 911) u va spert en in ospital. Ta regorda co ch'el veseva or, ina foto gida.

1

Since 2025, string jellyfish have been multiplying in seas around Norway and Scotland, where they have caused mass deaths of farmed salmon.1

2

Each string jellyfish is a colony of specialised tiny organisms called zooids. They are permanently joined and cannot survive on their own.1

3

In rough seas, or where there are physical barriers, a colony can break into smaller pieces. These pieces can get into fish cages to reach farmed salmon.1

4

Rising sea temperatures and waste dumped from fish farms, which the jellyfish feed on, have been blamed for the increase.1

5

Colonies can be found at the surface and at depths of around 1,000 m.1

6

In September 2007, string jellyfish were spotted off South Devon and South East Cornwall, and for the first time off Plymouth. Changes in Atlantic ocean currents are the most likely cause.1
