00:00The residents of a barangay in Agusan del Norte are almost drowning in anxiety and fear.
00:09A giant dikya is swimming alongside them.
00:15Kuya Kim, what's next?
00:20Who wouldn't be surprised to see such a giant dikya?
00:24The giant dikya is swimming alongside the residents of a barangay in Agusan del Norte.
00:31The color is purple. I thought it was a shark. I was really amazed.
00:36For the sake of privacy, Mark decided to put it aside.
00:39I took it because there are a lot of children swimming there.
00:42They might kill it. I put it under the house.
00:46What kind of jellyfish is swimming alongside the residents of Agusan del Norte?
00:49And why is it so big?
00:52Kuya Kim, are those fish jellyfish?
00:56Kuya Kim, what's next?
00:58Kuya Kim, what's next?
01:00We are used to calling them jellyfish.
01:03But dikya, not fish, are invertebrates or animals without a backbone or tail.
01:08Dikya belong to the Phylum Sinidaria, which is counted as sea anemone and coral.
01:13So there are experts who prefer to call them jellies or sea jellies.
01:19Their jelly-like body is made up of 95% water and a jelly-like substance called mesoglea.
01:26Meanwhile, according to a marine biologist, the giant dikya seen in Agusan del Norte is possibly a Bersuriga anajomin.
01:32It's an uncommon jellyfish, usually found in tropical Indo-Pacific area waters.
01:37Mostly their habitat are in estuaries, the part of the sea where it meets the rivers, and some coral reef areas as well.
01:46Not all of them are strong enough.
01:48They can't swim against the current.
01:51Most of the time, they just drift.
01:54Usually, they go closer to the shore if ever high tide.
01:58What did Mark do to the giant dikya?
02:03To make sure that there are no children swimming in the sea?
02:05I brought him to the side of the sea.
02:07I'm sorry because he might die.
02:09Don't touch them because we never know how sensitive their stings are to you.
02:14Always remember, it's important to know.
02:16I am Kuya Kim and I will answer you 24 hours a day.
