Nikki Banfield, known as BareFoot Photographer, expressed her fascination upon discovering a Mauve Stinger jellyfish with its prey still trapped inside, highlighting the transparency of the jellyfish.
According to the Wildlife Trust, the Mauve Stinger is a small jellyfish that packs a powerful punch, featuring long tentacles and warty structures full of stinging cells.
Nikki remarked on the precarious existence of fish living within jellyfish tentacles, noting how they often risk their lives to avoid predators.
The rare purple jellyfish, while commonly found offshore and in warmer European waters, occasionally appears on UK shores, demonstrating their unique beauty and danger.
