Which animal can take his stomach out?
There is no animal that can take its stomach out. It's impossible but there are some animals that can flip their stomachs inside out. One of those animals is the starfish. Another is the great white shark..Fun Fact: Starfish have two stomachs: the cardiac stomach and the pyloric stomach. The cardiac stomach is a sack like stomach located at the center of the body and may be pushed out of the body to engulf and digest food. Some species are able to force open the shells of clams and mussels by injecting their stomachs into the shells. With the stomach inserted inside the shell, the starfish is able to digest the mollusk in place. The cardiac stomach is then brought back inside the body, and the partially digested food is moved to the pyloric stomach. Further digestion occurs in the intestine.

Why can't bacteria survive in the stomach?
H. pylori live in the mucous lining of the stomach. Safe inside there, they are able to fight the stomach acid that does reach it with urease it releases. Urease converts the urea in the stomach into bicarbonate and ammonia, which are strong bases. This creates a cloud of acid-neutralizing chemicals around the H. pylori, protecting it from stomach acid.
