Listen to The Jellyfish

Climate change may be partly to blame for an epidemic of recent jellyfish stings in Australia, scientists say. Australian authorities report that more than 5,000 people were stung by bluebottle jellyfish over this weekend in Queensland alone, while 22,282 people sought treatment for a bluebottle sting in southeast Australia between December 1 and January 7—compared to just 6,831 during the same period last year.

Strong winds have blown jellyfish colonies towards the beaches in recent weeks, experts say, but warming oceans may be playing a part in boosting jellyfish populations by reducing predators and competitors. "Unlike other species, jellyfish are stimulated by just about any change to the ecosystem," Lisa Gershwin, a marine researcher at Australia's natural science agency, told the Washington Post. "So, it’s reasonable to say that the jellyfish might potentially be responding to the warmer-than-usual weather...Jellyfish are demanding our attention right now and we should be giving it to them. Those stings are an indication that something is wrong with our oceans—and we’re silly that we’re not listening."
