Thousands of dead starfish washed up on the beach of England's southeastern town of Ramsgate on March 4. Footage shows some of the marine invertebrates to be in pieces following days of sub-zero temperatures that froze much of Britain from Tuesday (February 27) through to Saturday (March 3). Ramsgate resident Chris Constantine, who filmed the scene, said "to see so many thousands dead on our beach was unsettling." He added there were also dead lobsters, crabs, gulls and fish on the beach.Constantine said that while dead marine animals wash up on the coast line following previous storms and temperature changes, he had not witnessed anything to this scale.
