Death hiding in Lovely water

Just one word,"Iriknji". It is hard to see this potentially deadly thumb sized jellyfish, even in a glass beaker of water. In the ocean you do not even know youre stung for 20 minutes. Ecologically speaking,sea turtles are having a hard time. Turtles eat jellyfish so there may be more jellies now.

You frequently see people carelessly swimming and sitting in beach shallows, A rash suit is essential to avoid the jellyfish stingers getting your skin but even then you could get stung on the face or hands.
