While jellyfish are known for drifting around in ocean currents, the golden jellyfish of Palau’s famous Jellyfish Lake – which are not poisonous to humans – perform a unique daily migration route that follows the sun’s arc across the sky. Each morning, these soft-bodied animals cluster on the western shore of this Micronesian marine lake to perform a horizontal migration towards the rising sun, stopping just short of the shadows formed by lakeside trees where their primary predators, anemones, live. After taking a break while the sun is high in the sky, the jellyfish then make the return trip in the early afternoon.
