    5 Facts About Lobsters That Will Amaze You

    Lobsters are amazing creatures, there is still much not known about them. Here are some of their mysteries revealed!

    1. Lobster used to be “poor people’s food”. A can of lobster was cheaper than a can of baked beans.

    2. 10% of lobsters coming across a lobster trap will enter; 94% of that 10% escapes. The inefficiency of lobster traps has inadvertently saved lobsters from overfishing.

    3. Lobsters were considered poor people food, prisoners used to complain they were forced to eat lobster too often.

    4. 4. Lobsters engage in pissing contests. Dueling lobsters urinate out of their face during fights and the lobster who pees first almost always wins.

    5. Lobsters are pretty much immortal. They show no signs of aging (no loss of appetite, no change in metabolism, no decline in strength or health), and seem to only die from external causes.
