Project Noah Fact of the Day: Starfish can completely regenerate their arms, providing them with the ability to drop arms to escape a predator. Because most of their vital organs are distributed throughout their bodies, some can even regenerate an entirely new starfish from just one arm and a portion of the central disc.
