Hell's fire anemone
会蜇人的触手Hell's fire anemone is a sea anemone, a soft animal that lives fixed to the seabed. It lives in the Indo-Pacific, growing at depths of down to 28 metres. Most sea anemones are harmless to people, but this one is highly venomous, so it is one to keep away from.1

怎样认出它
- Tentacles are colourless and about 10 to 20 cm long.1
- Branches repeatedly into branchlets, so the whole head of tentacles looks like broccoli.1
- Stripes radiate out from the mouth on the oral disc, which can be 10 to 20 cm across.1
- Tentacles grow in rings (whorls) of six, twelve and twenty-four as the animal gets bigger.1

- 给它留出空间。如果遇到它,保持冷静,慢慢后退,让它走自己的路。
- 如果被它蜇了:保持冷静,保持不动,拨打你的急救电话(112、000、911)或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样,拍张照片会有帮助。
