Devouring a home

Giant jellyfish, Tiburonia granrojo; green turtles, Chelonia mydas Scott Portelli, New South Wales Giant jellyfish make a very inviting meal for a couple of green turtles (Chelonia mydas). The turtles devour the soft tentacles and underside of the jellyfish, one of their main food sources, while slowly reducing the home of some small fish to a lifeless shell.
