Disgusting “Bluebottle” Jellyfish Invade Queensland Australia!
Yes, there is a Jellyfish invasion underway!
It’s a very painful invasion with almost 23,000 people reporting Jellyfish stings in Australia!
These disgusting looking Jellyfish are causing big problems.
Here is how the terrific news site The Guardian is reporting this:
“More than 5,000 people were stung by bluebottles on Queensland’s Gold and Sunshine coasts over the weekend as weather drove a wall of jellyfish onto the shore.
Conditions eased on Monday but remnants of the bluebottle armada (the correct term for a bunch of bluebottles) still dot the beaches and more than 200 people were treated for stings, mostly at the Sunshine Coast.”
The Guardian goes on to report:
“Across Queensland, but mostly in the south-east, 22,282 people sought treatment for bluebottle stings between 1 December and 7 January compared with 6,831 in the same period last year.”
Wow, that’s a lot of stings – and a lot of Jellyfish!
