- drobati 13y agoYou're not mistaken. "Because starfish like to eat clams and oysters, fishermen who gather shellfish have tried for years to get rid of them. To kill the starfish, fishermen would catch them, slice them right in half, and throw them back in the ocean. However, because starfish can grow back parts of their bodies, they were actually increasing the number of starfish." - Wiki on Starfish http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starfish http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starfish
