Hey, we have lobsters as big as deer where I'm from, like 6 feet long...
Edited to add: but they don't go shopping at Walmart, though.

Ok, I've never seen it. But I know where it is. It doesn't ever move - it's one of the attractions for divers at home.

And I realize that this isn't *quite* 6 feet... ( ) But it's still a helluva lobster. Seriously though, once they get too big to get caught in the traps, they grow forever. A lobster has pretty much no enemies in the sea... This one had come ashore during a storm a couple years ago. That's my grandmother holding it. They found two like that on the shore - one was still alive, so they ate it, and the second one was dead so they cooked it for the cats. They each weighed 15 lbs.

That'll teach em, eh?
LMAO
OMG that IS a monster  But I would only guess it to be 2m long.
I never thought about the trap size having a 'get out of jail free' factor. How old can one get?
Very interesting. TY for sharing.

I think they live forever. Wikipedia says over a hundred years old:

Lobsters grow throughout their lives and it is not unusual for a lobster to live for more than 100 years. In fact, lobsters may exhibit "negligible senescence", in that they can effectively live indefinitely, barring injury, disease, capture, etc.

He hasn't been in yet - he wouldn't still have the elastic bands around his claws had he already been cooked.

True.
Was that just a PhotoShop job or did you really color the poor fellow?

He was that colour coming out of the trap. They're rare, but they exist.
