A three person crew fishing boat was capsized when they were trying to haul in a net holding several giant jellyfish near the Sea of Japan. Each giant jellyfish can weigh up to 200 kg (about 400 pounds) and 2 meters (7 feet) in diameter. The increasing number of jellyfish in the area near Japan was due to weather and water conditions, especially for mating season, as reported by
