The Deadly Sea Slug

The Portuguese man o' war is a sea slug thing, and it is very poisons. It does not contain a spine, and floats around the water. It defends itself from a predator by stinging them. People could get potentially injured by handling one because of the sting. This organism is made out of little things called zooids; however, it isn't a jellyfish. It can be fatal when it stings you. It has a gas bladder, and lives at the surface of the ocean.
This is an extremely dangerous organism, and looks like a jellyfish. It comes to a surprise that it isn't a jellyfish because it appears to be one. It fills its upper body with gas in order to float on the surface of the water. It can control the amount of air it contains too.
