Venice is facing an extraordinary invasion 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 2: of a bizarre, cannibalistic jellyfish. It's threatening fish stocks, wrecking 5 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 2: havoc on the city's fragile lagoon ecosystem. What happens if 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 2: you have some sort of predator like this is time jellyfish, 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: They go into the ballast of ships.

That's how they spread. 12 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: But I had the same with cruise ships as well. 13 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 3: All the diseases and germs that spread. 14 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: The barnicles and I see yah, Yeah, there was a 15 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 1: time when the fair starry coming into Hub and the 16 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,919 Speaker 1: VD clinics be rubbing their hands together.

It's also known 24 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: to eat its own offspring. So interesting, isn't it. I 25 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: don't know if we're going to be seeing that in 26 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: finding Nemo.
