Enormous jellyfish plague China and Japan

[Arnold_Philips]

They are called echizen kurage and they sound like monsters from the trashier reaches of Japanese science fiction.

They are 6ft wide and weigh 450lb (200kg), with countless poisonous tentacles, they have drifted across the void to terrorise the people of Japan. Vast armadas of the slimy horrors have cut off the country’s food supply. As soon as one is killed more appear to take its place.

Sort of resembles a blubberish shaving brush, doesn't it. I wonder what these critters enjoy eating.

I suspect the oceans will be experiencing a lot of species displacement.

From the photo, I would say it eats anything it wants!

Arnold - that's just gross! You get the gross out of the day award!

Looking at that pic makes me want to poke a hole in its side to see what oozes out.
