Ugly lobster disease?

[gfisher4792]

I've never heard of this until I read this news article this morning: http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tm...&e=43&u=/ap/20040527/ap_on_bi_ge/farm_scene_1

Apparently, it's been around for a couple of years. Has anyone seen one? The article doesn't include pics, and I've never seen one around here, or on my trips to Mass.

It looks like a burn. Very deep red in an area. I never thought much about it, especially after the shell was in the bucket and the meat in the butter

I guess I don't discriminate....

I've seen some, and have to wonder if a cosmetic disease like that might actually be good for the population. I mean, if it's non-fatal, and results in lobsters that are undesireable on the market, that means more lobsters left to reproduce, right?

"Ugly lobster" ... ha, that is funny. I never thought lobster
were attractive.

Of couse, beauty IS in the eyes of the beholder.

I see it a good deal, I eat them. Next time I take one I'll snap a pic.
