Giant jellyfish descend on the ocean of Japan, causing untold destruction to coastal villages and leaving a trail of devastation and human depression behind.

Scientists think they originate in the Yellow Sea and in Chinese waters. For the third year since 2005, sea presents are moving them into the Sea of Japan. The jellyfish grow to an enormous size as they are transported by ocean currents said by Monty Williams, a marine biologist at Alabama's Dauphin Island Sea Lab.

   Researchers said that Jellyfish are usually kept in check by fish, which eat small jellyfish and compete for jellyfish food such as zooplankton.

Jellyfish figures are growing in Southeast Asia, the Black Sea, the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea, Richardson said.
