The Shapeshifting Deep Sea Jellyfish... With a "Pet"

The video explores the Deepstaria jellyfish, often mistaken for a plastic bag due to its unique appearance. Unlike typical jellyfish, it lacks long tentacles and uses its large, delicate bell to swim. Deepstaria belongs to the ancient Olmara Dee family and is an ambush predator, capturing prey by enveloping them with its bell. Interestingly, it often hosts a giant isopod inside, though the nature of this relationship is unclear. The video highlights the need for further research into these mysterious deep-sea creatures.
