LOBSTER
* Lobsters have long bodies with muscular tails, and live in crevices or burrows on the sea floor.
* Three of their five pairs of legs have claws, including the first pair, which are usually much larger than the others.
* Highly prized as seafood, lobsters are economically important, and are often one of the most profitable commodities in coastal areas they populate.
* Lobsters are found in all oceans. They live on rocky, sandy, or muddy bottoms from the shoreline to beyond the edge of the continental shelf.
*They generally live singly in crevices or in burrows under rocks.
* Lobsters are omnivores and typically eat live prey such as fish, mollusks, other crustaceans, worms, and some plant life.
* They scavenge if necessary, and are known to resort to cannibalism in captivity. However, when lobster skin is found in lobster stomachs, this is not necessarily evidence of cannibalism – lobsters eat their shed skin after moulting.
