Custom Glitter Text
We listened to a safety talk about jellyfish and learned the following interesting facts.
1. Don’t run into the water so that the box jellyfish has time to swim
away from you.
2. Irukandji jellyfish are very small. They are the size of your
thumbnail. They like to live around rocks and coral.
3. The box jellyfish can make its tentacles long and short. They can
stretch up to three metres long. It has 60 stingers. It tips upside
down to eat so that it doesn’t sting itself.
4. The box jellyfish is the most venomous animal in the world.
5. The box jellyfish only stings with its tentacles but the irukandji
stings with all of its body.
6. Always wear a stinger suit when you go swimming between November and
May.
7. Put vinegar on jellyfish stings straight away. Call 000 if you get
stung.
8. Swim where there is a stinger net or lifeguards.
9. Jellyfish rest on the bottom of the sea when they sleep.
