Huge Nomura jellyfish From China

Nomura jellyfish are huge creatures which can grow to 6.5 feet (2 meters) wide and weigh up to 450 pounds (220 kilograms). Common in Chinese and Korean waters, their population is on the rise in the fishing waters off Japan causing chaos as they poison fish with their toxic stings. Thankfully their sting can be survivable in humans, though one could assume it would hurt like f*ck.
