More than a hundred carcasses of Jellyfish were reported to be washed ashore at different points of Cox’s Bazar beach on Thursday morning, reports UNB.
These dead jellyfish have been washed ashore with the tidal water since this morning at several points along the 50 km long area of the beach including Labani, Sugandha, Simon Beach and Darya Nagar points up to Himchari.
But no one could tell the reasons behind this huge number of deaths of jellyfish.
Cox’s Bazar District Fisheries Officer Badruzzaman said this is not the season for this fish to die.
These jellyfish might have come close to the shore and got caught in the fishermen’s nets. Later, the carcasses started washing up on the beach as the fishers threw those away, he added.
