The Antarctic Sunstar

The Antarctic Sunstar was one of the most unusual creatures discovered by researchers. The researchers, on the other hand, gave it a rather ominous name. They dubbed it the Death Star, and we can see why. The animal’s scientific name is Labidiaster annulatus. It is a close relative of the ordinary starfish, yet it is a much weirder species.

The Death Star, for example, may have up to 50 arms! It may even expand to the size of a hubcap. The flesh of the arms is covered in tiny pincers that lock shut when anything comes into touch with them. Most of the time, the unfortunate victim is a passing krill. This isn’t the only strange thing about the Sunstar!
