A fisherman brings up a creature that looks like a Greek mythology character. Sad to say, it is not a new species or something left here by aliens centuries ago. Instead, it turns out to be a basket star — a group of brittle relatives of the starfish. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Basket stars are multi-armed invertebrates that can grow up to 3 feet long. Their favorite meal is a helping of Zooplankton, and they know how to regenerate limbs that have broken off or been sacrificed in a fight with a predator.
