A strange disease strikes starfish

 





Due to inexplicable illness the sea star in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans have begun to lose their tentacles and die.

Scientists are baffled and can't seem to find the cause of the mysterious disease. Biologists are only excluded from the list of "suspects" some types of fungi, parasites and microorganisms that could lead to such consequences. Unexplained illness appeared in the last year and is still striking sea creatures.

Pete Raimondi, environmentalists and biologist is: "What is it? What caused it? Where did this attack? If it is an exotic disease, how did she get here?". He expressed concern that such a strange disease of sea stars may be a harbinger of bad things to other marine life.
