AN EIGHT-ARMED CUTTLEFISH OR OCTOPUS ATTACKING A SMALL CRAB 



These molluscs are particularly fond of crustaceans, which they crunch with their parrot's beak-like jaws. Their salivary juice 

 has a paralysing effect on their prey. To one side, below the eye, may be seen the funnel through which water is very forcibly 

 ejected in the process of locomotion. 



A COMMON STARFISH, WHICH HAS LOST 

 THREE ARMS AND IS REGROWING THEM 



The lowest arm is being regrown double.
