One of my absolute favorite podcasts is WNYC’s RadioLab. This week they tell the story of The Luckiest Lobster. It’s a good one; take 15 minutes and give it a listen.
This really is not an isolated incident. Lots of people rescue lobsters and many tell their unique stories over at Maine Lobster Rescue. Here’s the “moving” story of Arizona Larry.
I am in New Orleans. Recently got a promotion…Moved to the Seafood department, where the 4 lobsters in the tank have been weighing heavy on my soul. I CANNOT stand the thought of these creatures being bought for the pot…I look at them daily & wonder…What I can do?
Is there a “rescue” here in NOLA I can contact? I will gladly buy their freedom, even at $12.99 a pop!
