Sea stars? Is this a new name for starfish?

[–] psud@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Yes, it is another name for a starfish

Same with jellyfish, crawfish, and to a lesser extent sea gulls. Now jellies, crawdads, gulls (they are not all by the sea).

A ton of birds are about to be renamed too, they are renaming all birds named after people.

Ah yes. Seastars, the vacuum cleaners of the ocean.
