: I live by the Puget Sound Bay and we have a sand dollar bed filled with hundreds of black sand dollars, never told the children for I wanted to keep them safe for I could tell they were alive. Last time I walked down there when the tide was out I noticed they were all gone. Do they migrate? ...or...has someone destroyed them? If they migrate how do they move around, etc? thank you for any information I just wondered if they were OK and if they would be back or if someone else had found them and ruined it.
I was at the beach in Westport,washington and found about 60 WHOLE sand dollars in about 1-2 hours. One sand dollar has only 4 lily fern leafs as opossed to 5. Does anyone know if this is a mutant, or just a little uncommon????
