"Jellyfish might look simple, but they’re great hunters! They use their long, stinging tentacles to catch tiny plankton, shrimp, and even small fish. After catching food, they bring it to their mouths, which are right under their bell-shaped bodies. No brain, no bones—but they’re excellent at surviving in the ocean!"
