Call Godzilla! Giant, Prehistoric Jellyfish are Attacking Japan

No kidding. Dig this (but excuse the preliminary ad from the WSJ site).


Jellyfish that are 6' in diameter?!? Don't be surprised if you see this photo from Tokyo very soon.

Godzilla stops for a snack on his way to Tokyo Bay to fight off the jellyfish.

Here's the original story from the WSJ.

Dude is wrapped in slickers but hasn't yet figured out the whole safety glasses thing to keep the "goo" out of his eyes. Wacky scientists.

My resident marine biologist loves these kinds of things--there's some variety of jellyfish that has tentacles 200 feet long. No joke.

Not to worry, they eat Jellyfish.
