Millions of 'sea pickles' swamp US west coast
The west coast of the US has been flooded with millions of pyrosomes (Greek for fire bodies), cucumber-shaped translucent creatures often called the "unicorn of the sea" or "sea pickles". Pyrosomes are glowing, gelatinous creatures that are actually moving colonies of tiny asexual organisms which reproduce by cloning. Though not poisonous they are believed cause blockades during fishing.
