Three moon jellyfishes captured by a lion's mane jellyfish in Rågårdsdal, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden.
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Three moon jellyfishes (Aurelia aurita) captured by a lion's mane jellyfish (Cyanea capillata) in Rågårdsdal, Lysekil Municipality, Sweden. In spring when the lion's manes are new and growing, they are voracious. You often see them catch 2-4 moon jellies and feed on them one by one. The lion's manes seem to favor attaching themselves to the underside of the moon jellies when they feed on them. In this photo, the lion's mane is moving in under one of the moon jellies to start feeding. These jellyfishes are about 12 cm (4.7 in) each in diameter. Photo taken shortly after the rain from a jetty in a shadowy and deep part of the fjord, with the sun just glancing in from the side. |
