Freshwater Jellyfish

I have lived in Missouri almost all of my life (I had a three year stint in Olathe, Kansas, that I don't like to discuss) and had no idea about two things.  1. I didn't know that there was even such a thing as a freshwater jellyfish.  2. I had no idea that we had them in Missouri, let alone the Lake of the Ozarks.  Check out the links below for more details.
