Lion's mane jellyfish

#1 Post by Nic Mach »

Just a quick word of warning for those who don't know, this species of jellyfish has been removed from Sandycove beach, there is also red flag warnings on both Killiney and Seapoint.
This jellyfish is extremely venomous and can deliver a severe sting long after it has been stranded on shore. Image
