=Common sea star=

The common sea star has five arms and can grow to 10–30 cm across. It is usually orange or brown, and sometimes violet; but if they live in deep water they are pale. They have spines on top and small suction cups on their feet. If they lose an arm, they can grow a new one!

They are not fish. They don't have fins, scales or gills. They move along on their tiny tube feet.

The Common Starfish lives on rocks and gravel in the sea.

A sea star's stomach is on its underside. It eats mussels, crabs, worms, snails, starfish and sea urchins. It wraps its arms around its prey's shell and opens it a little bit. Then it pushes its stomach through its mouth and inside the prey's shell and sucks up the food.
