Another reason to be afraid of starfish: they have a special tissue called catch collagen, which can solidify at will. They use it to grab hold of clams and yank them apart persistently with no effort frozen in place while the clam has to squeeze together with all its force. Eventually the clam is exhausted and releases, and the starfish oozes its gut inside to eat it :) Also, starfish are persistence hunters and they can see you.
so i was NOT prepared or interested in learning starfish are persistence hunters
