sharks are just like giant kitties tbh. they’re just curious silly little creatures. they’re just interested in what’s around them. they bite you the same way a cute little kitty bites you. they’re just trying to get to know you. why do you hate them so so much they think you’re interesting and they’re cute. leave them alone
Fun Facts
This species of Jellyfish uses bioluminescent defense technique in which it launch several bright flashes as its being attacked in hopes to attract a larger predator interested in its attacker more then itself.
For the previously said reason, this jellyfish has earned the title of the alarm Jellyfish.
They are considered deep sea creatures, living between 1000m to 4000m in depth around the globe.

They take part in behaviour known as spyhopping, in which a great white will peek its head above water to view its surroundings! Oh, and speaking of viewing, great white sharks have a blue iris, which is very cool indeed!

For quite a long time, it was believed that sponges were our most distant cousins, standing on the opposite side of the animal tree of life. Turns out it isn't the case - shiny, jelly-like creatures are the most alien of animals!
But these aren't true jellyfish, or anything close! Comb jellies don't sting, and don't have much in common with jellyfish except in appearance - in fact, they likely evolved most of their body plan completely independently!
They get their name from the rows of combs going down their body, with which they swim. These can often reflect light in unusual way, bringing a gamer vibe in the ocean depths!
Comb jellies come in a variety of shapes and sizes, not all jelly-like. Some scurry on the seafloor, while others look like huge floating ribbons. And some are even voracious predators, hunting... other comb jellies!
