10 Live Webcams Including Live Jelly Cam from Monterey Bay Aquarium

The Montery Bay Aquarium has 10 Live Webcams for you to choose from so you can watch otters, sharks, penguins and turtles as well as these extremely relaxing jelly fish!

Watch as their long tentacles and lacey mouth-arms move smoothly through the water. But don’t let these unassuming invertebrates fool you—their graceful trailing parts are covered in stinging cells used for hunting. When their tentacles touch tiny drifting prey, the stinging cells paralyze it and stick tight. The prey is moved to the mouth-arms and then to the mouth, where it’s digested.
