    Default Spawning starfish washed up on Devon beach

    Thousands of starfish have been washed up on a Devon beach after becoming exhausted spawning.

    A line of the creatures stretched for more than a mile across the pebbles at Budleigh Salterton.
    One expert said the process of reproduction had left the starfish "tired out" and they had been left "susceptible" to tides and the wind

    That is SO sad...

    First it was Dolphins, then Whales and now Starfish are stranded.
