Photo Fun Facts:
- Since this isn’t a true “fish,” scientists are trying to replace the name “starfish” with “sea star.”
- They protect themselves from dangerous predators with their bony and calcified skin.
- Most starfish have five arms, but some species can have up to 40 arms. (Wow, I bet they are great multi-taskers!)
- And if a starfish loses an arm…no problem! They can regenerate what they lost.
- This starfish was about the size of a dinner plate.
- Michael took this photo at a depth of about 40 feet.
