Poisonous jellyfish attacked the coast of the occupied Crimea: what are they dangerous (photo)

According to biologists, contacts with jellyfish can lead to large and painful burns on the skin, so it is not recommended to swim. Medusa Cornerot is poisonous, but its bite is not deadly. On the west coast of occupied Crimea there is a significant increase in the amount of cornerot honey. The Russian Agency "RIA Novosti" has published photos that recorded giant clusters of these marine animals with a transparent jelly.

According to an employee of the Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas Boris Antinsky, the appearance of the type of jellyfish Cornerot in the area is an abnormal phenomenon. Purposefully in the flock they do not get over. Professor of the Biology Faculty of Moscow State University (MSU) Elena Temereva said that, on the basis of photos, we can talk about the "invasion" of the jellyfish of cornerots on the peninsula. "This is undoubtedly cornerots.

Cornerot is a dangerous jellyfish, it is dangerous for humans too," the Russian edition of RT quoted. The biologist noted that contacts with jellyfish can lead to large and painful burns on the skin. He says death after bites is unknown, but there may be some individual intolerance that can cause an increased allergic reaction. "You can't swim," she stated. The invasion of Cornerot jellyfish can be associated with strong winds and coastal currents.
