Summary

Description

The Pacific sea nettle, like this one in Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary, hunts tiny animals like zooplankton and larval fishes with its stinging tentacles and mouth-arms. Plastic bags can look deceptively like sea nettles and other jellies while floating in the water, and can spell trouble for a sea turtle or other animal that's just scouting for a jellyfish snack. Help protect our ocean ecosystems by keeping plastic out of the water!
