What is a monk cap jellyfish
How toxic it is
It is reported that the monk's cap jellyfish is a kind of coelenteral animal, belonging to the hydra class, blue-cyan, with two pointed heads of the floating sac and a flat bottom, shaped like a monk's hat. Its buoyancy has a glowing membrane crown that adjusts its direction and floats on the surface like a sailboat in the wind.
The "murder weapon" used to sting people is those dense tentacles, which can reach an average length of 10 meters, and are densely covered with tiny spiny cells in the middle, which can secrete deadly toxins, and the toxins secreted by thousands of stinging cells accumulate, which are no less toxic than cobras.
The toxins of the monk cap jellyfish belong to the category of neurotoxins. If a person is accidentally stung by it, he will feel severe pain, and the skin that has been "stabbed" will appear with red scars, as if he has been severely whipped.
Moreover, the scars will not subside in two or three days! After the toxin enters the human body, it can cause symptoms such as swollen throat, fever, difficulty breathing, shock, and even interfere with cardiopulmonary function, which can be fatal in severe cases.
A reminder here
If citizens find this jellyfish by the sea
Please stay away

If accidentally touched by the jellyfish
Rinse with seawater first
And seek immediate medical attention
