CANADA: A dangerous jellyfish like creature called a Portuguese man o’war washes up on a Jersey Shore beach town, north of Long Beach Island.
“It’s definitely not typical. Extremely rare for the area,” Randy Townsend, captain of the Harvey Cedars Beach Patrol told NBC10.
Townsend posted an alert on Facebook, urging swimmers to be aware of their surroundings after finding the man o’war near the waterline on the Hudson Avenue beach Sunday morning.
Chrystal Geier is taking the warning seriously.
This Portuguese man o’war jellyfish washed up along the Jersey Shore beach Sunday morning. The find has officials warning swimmers to be on the lookout for the dangerous creature.
“It scared me a lot,” she said. “I feel like I will just stay out of the water until we figure this out.”
Portuguese man o’war have tentacles that grow from 10 to 30 feet long and marine biologists say their potentially deadly sting is far worse than what you’d get from jellyfish normally found at the Jersey Shore.
