Exploitation rates are high, so he will probably be caught again within a few years. <BR/><BR/>If he survivied being dropped into a strange environment, then it will probably be a short stay until he's on another dinner plate.Mark Powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10333424116503463839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22424144.post-79141394748711380202009-01-13T13:55:00.000-08:002009-01-13T13:55:00.000-08:00The lobster has only been at the restaraunt since ...The lobster has only been at the restaraunt since New Year's Eve... the transition should not take long or be difficult.

The key is what is meant by "protected waters". Last time I checked there weren't any MPAs near Kennebunkport, Maine, in which an 80-year old lobster would be protected from "harvest" (take). Please set me straight if I'm wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22424144.post-49289032100811958052009-01-13T10:11:00.000-08:002009-01-13T10:11:00.000-08:00An 80-year old lobster?
