         monster jellyfish
















         Plagues of giant jellyfish are preparing to attack Japan – billions of these Sumo
         sized gelatinous monsters will wreak havoc on Japan’s coastal towns and cities.
         Big enough to sink fishing boats, the giant nomura jellyfish grows to over 2m long
         and up to 200kg, one of the world’s largest jellyfish. Rising sea temperatures has
         seen an increase in these monsters – and this year will see the biggest attack
         ever.



         This film captures an underwater attack unfolding onto Japan’s shores. We follow
         a fishing community that is being destroyed by huge blooms, a scientist racing to                       Definition                  Episodes
