Which animal can turn its stomach inside out through its mouth?

Starfish

Background

A starfish can push its stomach out through its mouth. This lets it digest prey larger than its own body. After eating, it pulls the stomach back in. This way it can even feed on tightly shut clams. If an arm breaks off, it simply grows back again.
