Some starfish stand out more than others.
The striking fluorescent orange starfish reportedly ended up in one of LeFever’s crab traps when he went fishing off the shores of Orcas Island, a relatively remote island in the northwestern corner of San Juan County, Washington.
LeFever told SWNS he was surprised to see a sunflower sea star in his crab trap since the species has experienced a drastic population decline in the Pacific Northwest.
