How cruel to remove this lobster from his life, his home, subject him to the whims of ignorant human use and abuse! Return him to where he was removed. “Truly man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds them. We live by the death of others. We are burial places! I have since an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men will look upon the murder of animals as they look upon the murder of man.” “Living as they do in communities, whole populations are destroyed so that we can have their honey. Thus will many great nations be destroyed…and multitudes deprived of their food and stores; and they will be most cruelly submerged, swept under, drowned by invading armies, out of their minds. Oh, Justice of God! Why dost Thou not awake and protect Thy misused creatures?" - da Vinci

Same goes for most zoo animals these days, they live longer than their wild counterparts.
Now that's one mixed-race lobster!
Left sided Republican. Right sided Democrat. We finally found the one "undecided" in all the presidential polls!
