Residents of a barangay in Cabadbaran City, Agusan del Norte, were astonished after a giant jellyfish was spotted floating along the shores.The giant jellyfish measured about two feet long and was purple in color. According to Kuya Kim 's "Ano Na?" series on "24 Oras," Tuesday, a resident, Mark Bolaño, decided to keep it temporarily under their house because a lot of kids swim in the area.
