A Sea of Jellies

I've heard of the Pacific island of Palau  a few times before. There is a saltwater lake on the island that used to be connected to the Pacific Ocean before sea levels dropped, cutting off all ties. A handful of Jelly Fish became trapped and the lake now holds an estimated 8 million jellies! Interestingly enough, they've evolved into their own species and their sting is not harmful to humans. Bucket list- swim with 8 million Jelly Fish.







Photographer Kevin Davidson is an underwater photographer and has
been travelling to Palau for 15 years to take photos of tourists 
swimming with the jellies! Aren't the images amazing?

Little known fact- Jelly Fish are my favorite animal!
