Lion's Mane Jellyfish in Dublin Bay - Ireland


On June 2nd the EcoJel Team in collaboration withTechWorks Marine Limited filmed a Lion’s Mane Jellyfish in Dublin Bay. Watching the video (above) you can see its tentacles spread out in all directions, some of them up to 5 metres long, as it hunts (fishes) for plankton and other food. This rare footage shows the remarkable hunting techniques of the most venomous animal in Irish and UK waters, you can’t help but be impressed!
