Jelly and I scream: The jellyfish is beautiful, but deadly
Russian
biologist Alexander Semenov's 'Underwater Experiments' series follows
the colourful and majestic beauty of the lion's mane jellyfish ('Cyanea
capillata')
T
lion's mane jellyfish is the largest (known) species of jellyfish in
the world - and has been seen to grow seven feet in length
The creatures journey through the icy chills off the northwestern coast on Russia, captured during Semenov's dives
The purple head of the jellyfish mane is surrounded by the whispering tentacles, which hunt the water for suitable plankton
Larger creatures take on the purplish-colour, whereas younger animals take a lighter orange colour
One of the lion's mane jellyfish comes up to the surface: In general the jellyfish remain within 20 metres of the surface
Although
these jellyfish pack a sting, generally they just cause a swelling
pain their stings stings are not generally known to be fatal
Spectral beauty: Semenov takes a look at the jellyfish from below, seeing spectral beauty from the floating stingers
