Starfish Washed Ashore-A Spectacle You’d Rather Not Witness
December 21, 2009 by admin · 5 Comments
The pictures show thousands of starfish washed ashore which requires you to almost pick your way through the starfish of all sizes. This usually happens when the seas are choppy around the feeding grounds of the starfish. Starfish feed on mussel beds and can get thrown onto the beach during bad weather conditions. There is nothing much one can do to save them.
Of the thousands on the shore majority will be dead and only a few may be alive but as long as they stay on the beach, they end up dead. It is impossible to save them all as it the starfish will be spread for miles on the shore. Although the spectacle can amaze you with its color, it is indeed a very sad occurrence. People blame the bad weather and such strange occurrences to the global warming and its effect on the world.

This is an amazing, and yes, sad, occurrence.
But can we please stop fear mongering for two seconds and not blame thousands of dead starfish on global warming?
Honestly, people.
You don’t think there has ever been choppy seas before humans came along?
wew…amazing!!
At the far end of the beach a girl is tossing starfish back into the water. An older man approaches her and says, “You realize how futile what you’re doing is right? You can’t possibly make a difference.” The young woman contemplates the starfish in her hand and then as she gently tosses it out into the waves replies “Well, I made a difference to this one.” Even small gestures for good are never wasted.
so when this happens call your friends and have them call theirs etc and have a starfish saving party
I agree with Taylor, NewzGuy, and Especially Rhonda.
I think it’s sad too though. And Rhonda it would be awesome people did get together and have a starfish saving party.
