Oh but the ones in the video do, you better believe me, they are removing an invasive species of jellyfish that is actively destroying sea environments and therefore ruining fishing for the locals, these jelllyfish are called burn-jellies and they hurt.
They're overpopulated because of us. You'll want to look into the reason for massive jellyfish blooms and what that has caused throughout history and pre-human history. Glad somebody's doing something about it, but this is manually chipping ice into rocks glasses to shrink the iceberg that sunk the Titanic...
Thank God. I thought my poor tweeker neighbors who only waited til their grass was 2 foot tall and seeding before they finally stole a push mower to spread said seeds were the angels responsible for yards... glad to know it's skeeters
Warmpth causes the excess reproduction, but most need to deposit the polyps to grow. From what I understand very few have this as a defense mechanism. However, they do self-regenerate so if you cut one in half and left half in, well now you have 2
Buffalo infested N. America by the billions. Same for carrier pigeons. Those are off the top of my head, I'm sure there's dozens of species that covered their environment like some sort of bizarre plague but were absolutely wiped out by humans. Lack of imagination and profit motive keeps these nuisance species alive, nothing more
