Starshooter

Overview
An aquatic creature, Starshooters live in both kinds of ocean biome. They have 7 arms and are like a starfish in appearance. They have no suction cups on their undersides, though, so they use barbs on small strings attached to the end of each of their arms to grapple onto cliffs and prey.

Daily Life
Starshooters hide under the sand or on a cliff face. When they spot prey, they will shoot a barb straight at it, impaling it’s prey and bringing it back.

Adaptations

 * Their barbs were an adaptation after their relatives had trouble eating.
 * Other starfish have more than 8 arms. Due to the need to control their barbs, starshooters only have 7.
