are they mammals

Since jellyfish do not biologically qualify as actual "fish", the term "jellyfish" is considered a misnomer by some, who instead employ the names "jellies" or "sea jellies". The name "jellyfish" is also often used to denote either Hydrozoa or the box jellyfish, Cubozoa. The class name Scyphozoa comes from the Greek word skyphos, denoting a kind of drinking cup and alluding to the cup shape of the animal.

Do they have fur? NO! Do they nurse their young? NO! They are invertebrates (no bones). All mammals (except my ex husband) have bones.

Nope, they are in a class pretty much by themselves.
