Australia 2011 The Reef Series Sea Life II Starfish

The second release in this series features everyone’s favourite sea creature. The starfish or ‘sea star’ is not really a fish as it does not have gills, scales or fins.
The lifespan of this marine creature caries between 10 years for smaller species and up to a reported 35 years for the larger species. Beyond its distinctive shape, the starfish is famous for its ability to regenerate limbs, and in some cases, its entire body. The starfish moves through the ocean using a specially evolved water vascular system, and can be found in the tropical-temperate regions around Australia.
