Recently, a message that has gone viral in the circle of friends has dispelled many friends who want to go swimming at the beach! There are still many people in the circle of friends: Weihai people see this "plastic bag" at the beach and run immediately! Don't hesitate!
So do we have a monk hat jellyfish on the seashore in Weihai?
What kinds of jellyfish are common on the seashore?
Are these jellyfish poisonous?
This kind of floating object on the sea like a plastic bag in the text is actually a jellyfish, and the scientific name is "monk hat jellyfish." ”
Highly toxic! Highly toxic! Highly toxic! The fatality rate reaches 68%!
The likelihood of the presence of monk hat jellyfish on the weihai sea 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: "On the seashore here, 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.
Friends of Weihai don't worry! You may stay on the shores of Weihai 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 Weihai is poisonous
So what are the common jellyfish jellyfish on the seashore in Weihai? Which is toxic?
Common jellyfish on the seashore in Weihai: 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 sting
The coastal waters of Weihai are highly warm and rich in nutrients, which is conducive to plankton reproduction. During the breeding season of sand stings, the water temperature is suitable, there is abundant bait on the shore, and the influence of tidal tides, wind direction and other factors may occur when sand stings dock together. 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 are unfortunate enough to encounter jellyfish in the sea, the first option is to flee as soon as possible. If it is wrapped in it, try to push its umbrella with your hands, not the mouth and tentacles. After jellyfish sting, the first thing to do is to wipe the tentacles or venom that are adhered to the body with a dry towel or sand. If there is alum water, scrub it with alum water and make it inactive so that the venom cannot be released. It cannot be flushed with fresh water or rubbed with alcohol, which will stimulate the needle with toxins to pop out, which will be more serious.
I hope that friends will deal with the situation as soon as possible and seek medical treatment as soon as possible when they encounter the situation!
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!
