Hi Adriana,

Thanks for your question! I'm sorry for taking so long to answer it for you, and hope you are still interested in the information.

It turns out that there are a lot of animals in the sea that eat jellies. In fact, most of them are other jellies! Here are some of the main jelly predators:

I hope this answers your question about who eats jellies. If you'd like more information about jellies and who eats them, a Google search for "jelly predator" should do the trick!

Admin note - People too have been known to eat jellyfish. Most species you'll find served in Asian cuisines have a textures varying from crunchy to that of a somewhat chewy cucumber, and flavor varying from no taste, to slightly salty, to more "marine" but not quite fishy.
