'Dustbin-sized' jellyfish seen near Cornish coast

Barrel jellyfish, the size of dustbin lids, have been spotted in large numbers on the Cornish coast.

The species has a thick rubbery dome the size of a dustbin lid, with cauliflower-like tentacles hanging down nearly two metres deep.

It's thought their food - plankton - is in bloom close to shore.

The barrel jellyfish is the biggest found in British waters.

Although they are not dangerous to humans, people are being advised not to touch them.
