What threats do sea nettles have?

Sea nettles, a type of jellyfish, pose threats primarily due to their stinging tentacles, which contain specialized cells called nematocysts that can deliver painful stings to humans and other animals. While their venom is not typically life-threatening to healthy adults, it can cause severe discomfort, allergic reactions, or complications in vulnerable individuals. Additionally, large blooms of sea nettles can disrupt local ecosystems, impacting fish populations and other marine life by competing for food and habitat.
