Pink Tentacle is reporting on the annual return of the giant Nomura jellyfish to the coastline of Japan's Fukui prefecture.
These beasts can get up to 6 - 7 feet in diameter, and reach a weight of 440 lbs. Scuba divers and purveyors of oddities (like myself) love these creatures, but the fishermen do not. The jellies are so large that they destroy fishing nets and lines.
Thanks for the link, Mer.

WOW!
Totally Awesome!!!
That is one of the most amazing photos I've ever seen. Kudos!! :D
Lately, I've been reading a lot of comic books with Lovecraftian monsters illustrated therein- BPRD, Wormwood, et cetera. I was wondering how the artists came up with their crazy monsters. Wonder no more.
I've always found jelly fish to be mesmerizing to watch. I imagine I'd be comatose after watching one of these babies. ;)
Poisonous???
