Just keep swimming..

Here's a fact about me, I do not know how to swim! But ever since I saw Finding Nemo, I have wanted to go swimming with the jellyfish! They seem so soft and jiggly, like you can play with them. But obviously  that is not possible because you will get stung. But there is a natural water basin on the Eli Malk island of the Republic of Palau, that it is possible to do this! They are the only animals there, so they have not had predators for the last 12,000 years. Because they lost all predators, they lost the need to defend themselves. Over the last 12,000 years, they have lost their stinging abilities through evolution! Check out this badass video! One day I shall be there as well, but first I have to learn how to swim haha. Have a great weekend everyone!
