Giant Jellyfish Invasion
Wow, A jellyfish invasion coming our way! The author, Ruth Musgrave, had many reasons for writing this article. I think the main idea is to inform other fishermen about the new jellyfish occurences. The text says,"And local fishermen are feeling as if they are under siege." This shows that the author was relating this news to the future and wasn't risking other fishermen being invaded and seized by giant Nomuras jellyfish! This reminds me of how animals hibernate during the winter, knowing there is going to be no food to eat/hunt, therefore the animals stash up on all the food months ahead of time. This shows that Ruth Musgrave, like the hibernating animals, was thinking of the future and outcomes.
I learned many useful facts about jellyfish,and thier sudden interest in fisherman net's. Nomura's are very exalting! Did you know that a baby Nomura can be the size of rice and end the size of a washing machine in a matter of months!? Now that is really cool, also 95% water. Now who'd thought of that? This is all proof and evidence that this article was helpful, shocking, and above interesting!
