Blooming Lovely – Jellyfish Reported In Huge Numbers Around UK Coasts

Marine Conservation Society says ‘Look, but don’t touch, some species sting!’ 

It’s got no brain, no bones, no heart, no eyes and only a basic nervous system, but despite its lack of substance the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) wants to know if you spot one.

MCS is asking British seaside visitors to report sightings of some of the most bizarre but fascinating creatures found in UK waters – jellyfish.

Large gatherings, or blooms, of jellyfish have already been reported in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and as the UK’s seas warm up during the summer, more jellyfish blooms are expected.

40 sharks have so far been reported to MCS, including 14 from Scotland, 1 from Wales, another 2 from County Mayo in Ireland and 23 from Devon and Cornwall, where two reports involved sharks leaping clear of the water, a behavior known as ‘breaching’.

Look Out For Leatherbacks – The Turtles With A Built-in Central Heating System

Endangered turtles make their way to UK’s summer seas

They look like a black leather sofa with spots on and the shape of their shell inspired the boating phrase ‘to turn turtle’ and, according to the Marine Conservation Society (MCS), they’re about to arrive off the coast near you.

MCS is urging coastal path walkers and sea-users to look out for leatherback turtles, and report them online to MCS, as part of ongoing work to determine UK hotspots for these critically endangered reptiles that migrate to UK seas each summer.
