The Portuguese man o' war looks like a jellyfish, but it is actually a colony of many tiny linked animals that work together as one. It drifts on the surface of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific oceans, and its long tentacles sting prey. Its sting is painful to people, and in some cases it can kill them.1

Ahabanza
It lives on the surface of the water, as part of a group of animals called the neuston. Winds can blow it into bays or onto beaches, where beachgoers are most likely to meet it. A man o' war found on a beach may lead to the beach being closed.1

Uko wayimenya

  • A gas-filled bladder called the pneumatophore floats on the surface and acts as a sail.1
  • Long tentacles, which can reach over 30 m, hang below the surface.1
  • The float can be up to 30 cm long, 13 cm wide and 15 cm tall.1
  • Groups can be large, sometimes over 1,000 animals.1
  • The sail may be left- or right-handed, depending on the way the wind catches it.1

Ikunze kwitiranywa na: It superficially resembles a jellyfish, but it is a siphonophore, a colonial animal made of many smaller units called zooids.1

Imbaraga z'ubumara

Imirya itera urubori

Uturemangingo duto cyane ibihumbi dutera urubori turasa iyo hari ikidukozeho.

Ubumara bwayo bukora iki?

Its tentacles carry nematocysts, tiny coiled, thread-like stingers that inject venom on contact. The venom can paralyse small fish and other prey. The sting is powerful enough to kill fish, crustaceans and, in some cases, humans.1

Iteje akaga kangana iki ku bantu?

Akaga ku bantu: IkomeyeGuterwa urubori na yo bisaba kujya kwa muganga. Abapfa ni bake cyane.

Its stings are painful and it is well known to beachgoers. In some cases the sting can kill humans. Large groups can also reduce fish populations and damage fishing supplies.1

Ikora iki iyo ifite ubwoba?

When attacked at the surface, it can deflate its pneumatophore and temporarily submerge.1

Niba itera urubori

  • Sohoka mu mazi kandi ukureho imirya yayo (tentacles) yose ukoresheje uturindantoki cyangwa igitambaro.
  • Ku box jellyfish zo mu turere dushyuha: suka vinegere aho zateye urubori nibura amasegonda 30, hamagara ubutabazi kandi witegure gukora CPR (gukanda igituza no guhumekera umuntu). Ku bluebottle no ku zindi nyinshi: oza n'amazi y'inyanja, hanyuma ukoreshe amazi ashyushye kubera ububabare.

Buri gihe banza uhamagare nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911). Izi ni inama rusange z'ubutabazi bw'ibanze, si inama za muganga. Ibanze by'ubutabazi bw'ibanze

Irinde akaga

  • Ntuzigere ukora, ufata cyangwa ushotora inyamaswa yo mu gasozi, nubwo yaba ntoya, kandi nubwo yasa n'isinziriye cyangwa yapfuye.
  • Yihe umwanya. Niba uhuye n'imwe, tuza, usubire inyuma buhoro buhoro kandi uyireke yigendere.
  • Niba imwe igutereye urubori: tuza, ntunyeganyege, hamagara nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911) cyangwa ujye ku bitaro vuba. Ibuka uko yasaga, ifoto irafasha.

Ntigushakisha ngo ikugirire nabi. Ikoresha ubumara bwayo kugira ngo ifate ibyo kurya cyangwa yirinde, kandi ikunda cyane kwihisha. Ibindi ku kwirinda

Ibintu by'ukuri

1

It is not a single animal. It is a colony of zooids, all genetically identical, that work together like organs in one body.1

2

The blanket octopus is immune to its venom and uses broken tentacles as weapons.1

3

Its float can produce carbon monoxide, which makes up as much as 13% of the gas inside it.1

4

The loggerhead sea turtle eats it regularly, because its thick skin protects it from the stings.1

5

The man-of-war fish can live among its tentacles and feeds on them, while avoiding being stung.1

Usenya ibinyoma

Ikinyoma: It is a jellyfish.

Ukuri: It only looks like a jellyfish. It is a siphonophore, a colony of many linked zooids.1
