The world's most toxic jellyfish: Australian square jellyfish
The Australian square jellyfish is the square jellyfish, also known as the box jellyfish because it looks like a box. The Australian square jellyfish is light blue in color and is a very good-looking marine creature, but it is highly toxic and is the most toxic jellyfish in the world, as well as one of the most poisonous marine creatures. The Australian square jellyfish has about 15 tentacles, each of which is covered with stinging cells that store venom.
The world's most toxic jellyfish growth habits
The Australian jellyfish lives mainly in tropical waters, mostly in the shallow waters of Australian bays. It is translucent in the water, making it difficult for people to detect it directly. It has four stages of reproduction and reproduces asexually. The Australian jellyfish is a carnivore and feeds on small fish and crustaceans, using its venom to hunt for food.
Highly Toxic
The Australian square jellyfish is so toxic that once it is stung by its tentacles, it should be taken immediately for treatment, otherwise it will die within 3 minutes. Its attacks can cause heart disease and neurological damage within minutes. In some areas of Australia, the number of people who have been stung by the Australian jellyfish in the past 25 years is about 60, while only 13 people have died from shark attacks, which is surprising and frightening.
Countermeasures
There is no good way to prevent jellyfish from poisoning you. The most effective solution is to stay away from jellyfish-infested waters, and there are warning signs in many Australian waters. Some serums are available to treat the toxins from jellyfish stings, but they are not very useful for jellyfish, so we can only hope that scientists will be able to help.
