Excellent and fun(?) article with lots of stuff I didn't know.

The thing about starfish is that you tend to forget the -fish part. But when you think about that, a lot of things come into focus. For example, the fact that besides its underwater life, it is nothing like a fish. For example: a starfish can push its stomach out of its mouth and eat the inside of a clam. Show me a fish that can do that.

1. Meh

I was hoping for more than I got. The article wasn't that great, usually the Guardian does better.

2. Did you know the lifespan of a starfish is between 10 and 34 years? Google has lots of information ⭐️
