Nematocysts are found in [[jellyfish]], [[coral]], and other animals in the phylum Cnidaria (also called Coelenterata).

Nematocysts can be dangerous to humans, and swimmers should always avoid contact with jellyfish or coral. Although some of them just itch or give a mild sting, others, like the [[Portuguese]] Man-of-War cause excruciating pain and occasionally have been fatal.

Like other kinds of venom, people vary in their reaction, so a jellyfish that only causes a mild sting for one person may be extremely dangerous to another person.
