Rare blue sea slugs washing up on Texas beaches can sting even after death; experts urge public to avoid contact.
Rare blue dragons (Glaucus atlanticus), tiny sea slugs that feed on Portuguese man-o-war, are washing up on Texas beaches due to strong onshore winds.
The Harte Research Institute documented 20 of the creatures along a stretch of coastline from Surfside Beach to Padre Island National Seashore.
Though small and strikingly blue, they can deliver painful stings even after dying, as they store and concentrate the stinging cells of their prey.
Experts warn the public to observe them from a distance and avoid touching them, emphasizing that only trained marine biologists should handle the animals.
