Australia Boy Stung by Jellyfish at Mate’s Funeral
Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008
According to RadioAustralia, a five-year-old boy was stung by an Irukandji jellyfish at Gove, on the North Australian Coast.
Callam Carey was spreading flowers at the waters edge to commemorate the death of a friend when the tiny jellyfish, measuring only about a centimeter in diameter, stung him.
These little critters may be tiny but they pack a painful, sometimes deadly sting.
The young boy spent hours in hospital on morphine, but it looks like he’ll live.
