'Imagine if the kids saw' monster jellyfish washed up on beach

People said they were "nervous" after a "monster" jellyfish washed up on a beach.

The discovery was made on the foreshore at Fairbourne, in North Wales. It was estimated to be one metre across and brought in by the tide to the mouth of the Mawddach estuary across the water from Barmouth, reports North Wales Live.

One theory of why the jellyfish was washed up on the beach was because it was lured inshore by the “fishy” algal blooms recently reported along the coasts of Gwynedd and Ceredigion. A photo of the Fairbourne “monster” was shared on social media and it prompted an outburst of startled exclamations.
