The post has grabbed the attention of users who in the comments section reacted to the picture. One user commented, "I used to see these all the time on both main and Cooee Bay beach in Yeppoon." Another user wrote, "Definitely a small lions mane jellyfish and that brown is a normal colour." Another user commented, "My first thought was shark egg casing. I found a bunch of weird stuff lately, I can’t figure this out, my first though was snap eggs but I wrote that off somewhat." Another individual comnmented, "Sunburnt blob fish aka Peter sterling fish."

Meanwhile, marine biologist Dr Lisa Gershwin, director of Australian Marine Stinger Advisory Services and co-creator of the jellyfish app, has revealed that the mysterious blob was "bunched up" but added that it was most likely a 'lion’s mane cyanea barkeri jellyfish', reported news.com.au. Furthermore, Dr Gershwin informed that she had discovered the species herself in 2010 in Mackay, as per the news.com.au report. She revealed that the top of the body is chocolate brown and it makes her believe that it is "cyanea".
