According to reports, a lethal jellyfish has been spotted near New Jersey shore. This jellyfish is called Portuguese Man-of-War and has been found across the coast. Authorities are warning people to stay away from these lethal Portuguese man-of-war jellyfish.

As per reports, the jellyfish could be very dangerous and it can affect on the basis of the age of the victim, in addition to the area of the attack. The creature looks very cute; however, this lethal creature has been seen for more than 25 times on the beaches of Long Beach island and Stone Beach.

As per reports, on June 21, a dead Portuguese Man-of-War jellyfish was spotted washed on Long Island beach. According to scientists, the strong Gulf Stream could have drawn the jellyfish to New Jersey since they belong to warmer waters near Australia or Mexico.

According to John Tiedermann, director of Marine and Environmental Biology Policy Program at Monmouth University, "It probably came up with the Gulf Stream and then we had a little bit of a north swell move in".

Scientists said that the jellyfish appears gelatinous, however it is not a jellyfish. They are called to be a group of ethereal creatures associated with jellyfish known as siphonophores. As per reports, their lethal tentacles could extend anywhere from 10 to 30 feet, and some are even able to reach up to 160 feet. As per scientists, the body of the creature that looks similar to a jellyfish appears as a plastic bag since it is filled with water.
