Lotsa' Dots & Spots

Crown Jellyfish are able to make light through bioluminescence.
When they are touched, their bells will light up.
Otherwise, the bell of a crown jellyfish will look transparent when undisturbed.
When they are attacked, crown jellyfish are able to startle, mislead, and distract
their predators with the light that they produce.
They may also use their bioluminescence to lure or dazzle their prey.
