3" waterproof vinyl sticker that says "you can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, but you can't Pycnopodia". Pycnopodia helianthoides, or sunflower stars, are beloved sea stars that were recently listed as critically endangered by the IUCN due to their collapse during the sea star wasting disease epizootic. I worked in a coldwater aquarium during the outbreak and collapse, and it was devastating to watch these amazing critters just...melt away. I hope these stickers will help raise awareness about Pycnopodia through humor while communicating that they shouldn't be touched if you see them in the wild, as they are protected.
