Sea stars are slow-moving animals that primarily feed on mollusks, crustaceans, and small fish. They typically use their tube feet and suction-cup-like structures to move around and capture prey. Sea stars also have a unique feeding mechanism where their stomach can be pushed out of their body to digest food externally.
