The red moon jellyfish is a kind of jellyfish. From the appearance, it looks like a mushroom. It is divided into two parts: the umbrella part and the wrist part. Studies have found that most jellyfish are poisonous, and the red moon jellyfish is also a kind of poisonous jellyfish. The body of the red moon jellyfish has tentacles, each of which has many stinging cells. These stinging cells are the structures that release the venom. When the red moon jellyfish pierces its tentacles into humans and other animals, these stinging cells release venom. This kind of venom is composed of proteinoid and some enzymes, which are harmful to human body and most animals.
As mentioned above, the red moon jellyfish is poisonous. However, they are not particularly toxic among all jellyfish species. Some people have mild symptoms after being stung by red moon jellyfish, sometimes even no reaction, and some people's symptoms may be more serious. Therefore, it is recommended to deal with it in time after being stung by red moon jellyfish to avoid more serious symptoms, and if necessary, medical treatment is needed.
In addition, the red moon jellyfish is edible, which is what we often call "jellyfish". Although they release venom, as described above, this venom is actually proteinoid and enzymes. After treatment, their structure will change, so it will not harm the human body. After being treated with high temperature and high salinity, it is generally no problem.
