The lion's mane jellyfish is the largest jelly fish in the world. It lives in the cold waters of the Arctic, northern Atlantic, and northern Pacific Oceans. The largest documented specimen was found in 1870 and had a diameter of over seven feet. They have tentacles that can be over a hundred feet long. The lion's mane jellyfish is venomous and can be dangerous, mostly because of the volume of the stings verses the potency of the venom. A sting from the Lion's mane can cause cramping, hart failure, and blistering.
