Think the blue whale is the longest animal in the world? Think again! Meet the mesmerizing giant siphonophore, a marine wonder only officially identified in 2020. Resembling jellyfish, these fascinating predators drift through our oceans with venomous tentacles, capturing unsuspecting fish and guiding them to their main body for digestion. What's even more mind-blowing? The giant siphonophore is composed of numerous clones working in harmony, and the longest known specimen stretches over 150 feet (46 meters), dwarfing the blue whale and tripling the length of a humpback!
Join us as we explore the awe-inspiring discovery of this colossal creature in Western Australia's Gascoigne Coast bioregion. Unearthed purely by chance during a submersible's ascent, this find hints at the existence of even larger siphonophores lurking in the depths. Could future expeditions uncover an even greater giant? Watch to find out!
