Here are some fun facts about lobsters:

• Have you ever heard of a lobster march? Hundreds, or sometimes thousands of spiny lobsters form into columns and migrate en masse. This scenario is often spotted just after a storm. It is thought that the lobsters could be seeking a better food supply or warmer water. Scientists don’t know.
• Lobsters have extremely poor eyesight, but a fantastic sense of smell! They should of gone to SpecSavers!
• Believe it or not, eating lobster was once considered a mark of poverty. Lobsters were consumed by servants, slaves and prisoners. Once upon a time, in Massachusetts, servants rebelled and forced a contract stating they would not be fed lobster more than 3 times a week.
• In the early 1800s lobsters were so common that they were simply gathered from the shore by hand.   Sourced: www.thejunglestore.com
