Is immorality possible? Are jellyfish really fish or is “sea jelly” more accurate? Is one of the only truly immortal animals smaller than your pinkie fingernail? Did you know that sea jellies are brainless, heartless, and bloodless? What does a four point five millimeter long invertebrate eat? Today with your host, Devon, and co-hosts, Chet and Cap, you will learn everything there is to know about the Immortal Jellyfish, Turritopsis dohrnii.

The riddle for the next episode is “Dear Valentine: Orchids are pink, insects like me are too, say your prayers, I might just eat you. Who am I?” You can send in your answers, questions, and episode suggestions to animals@kingdomanimaliapod.com and our website is at https://kingdomanimaliapod.com/kazpk.
