Several rare and enormous jellyfish, nicknamed the “pink meanie,” were spotted on a Texas beach this week – horrifying beachgoers with their expansive tentacles that can stretch up to 70 feet.

More than 10 cotton candy-colored jellyfish were spotted along a 10-mile stretch of beach, (said) Jace Tunnell, the director of community engagement at Harte Research Institute.

The pink jellyfish, known as Drymonema larsoni, can weigh over 50 pounds and have tentacles that stretch up to 70 feet, Tunnell said.
