Starfish


starfish

Starfish live in tidal pools or under deep water. They can be many colours. They can have five or more arms. Under their arms they have rows of hundreds of tiny feet. These feet have suction cups on them that help them move. They also use these arms to open shells so they can eat the shellfish inside. The starfish's mouth is on the underside in the centre of their body.
