Animal Of The Day-Portuguese Man-Of-War

Hello again, I will be listing pictures of animals and their description every day. Today I'm showing you a picture of a jellyfish called the Portuguese Man-Of-War. It is a beautiful animal, yet it is extremely dangerous. It's stings are very painful. The Man-o'-War eats small fish that swim near its stingers. The fish is almost instantly paralyzed and that's when the jellyfish uses it's stingers to bring the fish to it's mouth. The stingers, even when broken off the jellyfish, can submit a powerful sting that can kill small children and the elderly. It is also sometimes called the blue bottle because, well it looks like a floating blue bottle. It's body is about 3 to 12 inches long (9-30cm.) The Portuguese Man-of-War floats by the sack that actually emits its own gas. These jellyfish are found in warm waters in the Atlantic ocean. Well that concludes my first ever Animal Of The, Day so come back soon.
