Jellyfish can still sting after they are dead. One should never touch a dead jellyfish. if its in the way of everybody i suggest using a stick or if you don't have a stick the jelly part of the jelly fish would be your better chance at not getting stung if you ABSOLUTELY HAD to touch a jelly fish you would want to touch the round jelly part of the jellyfish.
yes
sometimes, depends what type and how long its been dead

You should never touch a jelly fish , if its dead or alive . some jelly fish have the power to sting even when dead , the reason of that is because they are very strong and power ful and consist of many poisonous acids that give the jelly fish a reaction that something is touching it or nearby ! the current of the sting flows through the jelly.fishs tenticles and through to the pussers (feet) . so the answer to , can jelly fish sting you even if dead ? is a YES . hope this helps x

Even beached and dying jellyfish can still sting when touched. In 2010, at a New Hampshire beach, pieces of a single dead lion's mane jellyfish stung between 125 and 150 people.
