World Jellyfish Day is celebrated every year on November 3 to honour one of Earth’s oldest and most fascinating marine organisms. Jellyfish have existed for over 500 million years and play a vital role in maintaining marine ecosystem balance. Despite their reputation for stings, they contribute to oceanic food chains, provide shelter for juvenile fish, and act as indicators of ocean health and climate change. The day encourages appreciation through educational activities, aquarium visits, and conservation awareness, emphasizing the need to protect marine biodiversity and promote sustainable ocean practices worldwide.
