Jelly Fish By: Mrs. Patterson
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: • Soft white flesh with a round hood or “cap” on top • Long tentacles that hang down • Some are clear colored, but others can be pink, yellow, blue, and purple. • A jelly fish is 98% water. • Some jelly fish can even glow in the dark!
The greatest thing about my animal is that • They use their tentacles to sting and poison prey.
DIET: My animal likes to eat • Plankton • Small fish • Shrimp • Crabs • Tiny plants • Other species of jelly fish!
HABITAT: My animal lives • One type of jellyfish can live in fresh water • Mostly all other jelly fish live in salt water oceans • Most live in the shallow water near the coast although some jelly fish can live in deep water
BEHAVIOR: My animal • Squirts water from its mouth to propel forward • Mostly floats along the ocean currents with its tentacles hanging down.
SIZE: The size of my animal • Ranges from just a few inches to the largest species, called Lion’s Mane Jellyfish, which has a body that can be over 3 feet long and have tentacles as long as 100 feet!
TWO THINGS I LEARNED about my animal are that: • Some jelly fish can grow larger than a human! • Jelly fish do not have eyes, ears or a brain!
