Recently, a message that has gone viral in the circle of friends has dispelled many friends who want to go swimming at the beach! Forum netizens also issued such a post: Jellyfish is not as beautiful as we think, everyone bathe to see their children!
So do we have a monk hat jellyfish on the beach in Yantai? What kinds of jellyfish are common on the seashore? Are these jellyfish poisonous?
The floating object on the beach like a plastic bag in the post is actually a jellyfish, scientifically called "monk hat jellyfish." ”
Highly toxic! Highly toxic! Highly toxic! The fatality rate reaches 68%!
The possibility of the appearance of monk's hat jellyfish on the coast of Yantai is extremely low
Xiaobian consulted Jingdong Meidong, deputy dean of the School of Life Sciences of Ludong University, on this issue, and the dean of Jing said: "We yantai seaside, there is no such monk hat jellyfish in my impression. ”
Monk's hat jellyfish belongs to tropical and subtropical species, and has certain requirements for water temperature and water quality, so it is mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical seas such as the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
Monk-hat jellyfish are rare along the coast of China, but because they will drift away with ocean currents, there have also been records of discoveries in the northern waters of our country.
Yantai friends don't worry! You may stay on the coast of Yantai for decades, and you may not be able to see a monk's hat jellyfish that drifts to the Bohai Sea with the currents!
This jellyfish in Yantai is toxic
So what are the common jellyfish jellyfish in Yantai? Which is toxic?
President Jing Meidong listed three kinds of common jellyfish on the coast of Yantai: sand stings, sea moon jellyfish, and white Xia jellyfish.
It is worth noting that the first sand sting is poisonous, and the toxicity is not small!
Sand stings
The sting's throbby sac contains venom, and when the tentacles touch the person, they will wrap around it, and at the same time, the sac will pop out of the sac and stab into the human body. Whether the sand sting is alive or dead, or even split into pieces and rushes to the beach, its tentacles may sting people!
After being stung, ecchymosis will appear locally, and you will feel electric shock and tingling, numbness, itching and burning, and depending on your constitution, your reaction to being stabbed by sand will be different. Friends who swim in the sea, if you feel a sudden sting there and a scar appears, it may be stabbed by a sand sting!
Sea moon jellyfish
The second type of sea jellyfish is edible! But it is better to go to the market to buy the processed jellyfish from professionals! The sea moon jellyfish has been pickled, but it is a delicacy on our coastal table!
White Kasumi jellyfish
The third common jellyfish is called the white xia jellyfish, which has a low edible value and the longer tentacles will wrap around the culture net, which is a catastrophic jellyfish.
Stung by jellyfish for emergency treatment
"If you need to go to the hospital to deal with it if you are close to the hospital," this is the suggestion made by President Jing Meidong, "if you are far away, you can first rinse with white vinegar or seawater, and you must not use fresh water." ”
"You can use a dry towel to rub the wound in one direction to wipe off the surrounding toxins, and then neutralize the toxins with an alkaline solution, and there are large lesions that need to be cleaned up in time." I hope that when friends encounter a situation, they will take President Jing's advice, deal with it as soon as possible, and seek medical treatment as soon as possible!
Although we do not have monk hat jellyfish on the beach, we must pay attention to sand stings! If you are hit by the waves, don't come into contact with your skin! Let's take a look at the comments of netizens!
