Are the jellyfish that are washed up on your beaches poisonous?

If they are completely dried up then no. If they are still moist and LOOK like they could in fact be alive or still sting you, then it is best to stay clear. Most jellyfish are OK except for the box jellyfish found mostly around and in the water of Queensland, Australia.

Can a jellyfish still sting you if it is dead?

IF something happens to the bee and it doesn't use its stinger and it dies, it still has its stinger. The stinger is still able to be used even after death. So if you step on a dead bee it can still sting you.


What do you do when you got stung by a jellyfish?

Pee on it. Peeing on a stung bit of skin won't do much to relieve suffering, and you'll suffer some odd stares, too, doctors say. Urine has not been scientifically proven to help in jellyfish stings, said Dr. Paul Auerbach, an emergency physician at Stanford University Hospital and an expert on jellyfish stings. Instead, vinegar is the best first treatment, he said, when treating stings from North American jellyfish.


Will people get stung by a dead jellyfish that was washed up on the beach?

Idk XD probably not... the stingers DIE when the jelly DIES ^this person is seriously wrong. Stingers still contain poison well after death of the jellyfish. The stingers contain cells called nematocysts which can fire off toxins and sting whatever touches them even after death or separation from the actual jellyfish. Some jellyfish are extremely toxic and a single sting can kill you. As for the person who answered before me, why even bother answering if you don't know and are DEFINITELY wrong?
