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

Ihlala
Oceans worldwide, in the midwater; often at the surface, and also down to about 1,000 m deep1
ULwandlekazi i-Atlantic, Ulwandle iMediterranean, ULwandlekazi iPacific, Ulwandle i-North Sea
Ekhaya
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
Ubude
3 m (9.8 ft)1
Ijubane eliphezulu
cishe 3 km/h (1.9 mph)
Ukubhukuda, isiqagela nje
Sidlani?
It acts like a drift net, spreading its tentacles wide to catch plankton. It also preys on farmed salmon in some places.1

Indlela yokusibona

  • 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
  • A gas float at the front of the colony, followed by a set of swimming bells that push it forward1
  • Its colony is only 2 to 5 cm wide across1

Amandla obuthi

Ama-tentacle ahlabayo

Izinkulungwane zamaseli amancane ahlabayo ziyadubula uma kukhona okuzithintayo.

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKungaba buhlungu ngempela, kodwa cishe akukaze kube kubi kakhulu.

Its tentacles can sting people painfully.1

Uma sihlaba

  • Phuma emanzini bese ukhipha noma yimiphi imicu ehlabayo (ama-tentacle) (ngamagilavu noma ngendwangu).
  • Kuma-box jellyfish asezindaweni ezishisayo: thela uviniga ezindaweni ezihlatshiwe okungenani imizuzwana engama-30, biza usizo futhi ulungele ukwenza i-CPR. Kuma-bluebottle nakwamanye amaningi: hlanza ngamanzi olwandle, bese usebenzisa amanzi ashisayo ngenxa yobuhlungu.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

  • Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
  • Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

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
