Jellyfish: our complex relationship with the oceans' anti-heroes

The courier hands me an unassuming brown box with “live animals” plastered on the side.

Key Points: 
  • The courier hands me an unassuming brown box with “live animals” plastered on the side.
  • The cardboard exterior gives way to a white polystyrene clamshell, cloistering a pearly sphere-shaped, water-filled bag.
  • The Californian Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Jellyfish: Living Art was the organisation’s most popular and long-running exhibit since opening in 1984.
  • A study has shown eating cannonball jellyfish, for example, can reduce the effects of arthritis – albeit so far only in a small group of rats.

A biological wonder

    • For example, immortal jellyfish (Turritopsis dohrnii) sidestep the ageing process by reverting to their polyp stage.
    • Crystal jellies’ (Aequorea victoria) green fluorescent protein (GFP), found in organs within the animal’s bell, allows scientists to study gene expression.
    • Gene expression is the instruction manual DNA follows, for example, to become proteins.
    • This gives the crabs security and research suggests jellyfish hosting crabs grow larger than those without, but it’s not clear why.

Sea curiosities

    • Research suggests ocean literacy is best cultivated through hands-on experience and personal interactions.
    • But the technology aquariums use to bring jellyfish to the masses limit how involved audiences can be with the animals.
    • Although scientists have argued technology can damage people’s relationships with other animals, it can help us reconnect with our environment too.
    • Bacteria must be introduced into the tank to control jellyfish waste (ammonia) by converting it into nitrite and then nitrate.
