Interesting saga of keeping a grocery store lobster as a pet:

So far there are 3 videos. This is better than a soap opera!

I've been wanting to do this with live crawdads from the local market. Just go buy one and keep him in one of our little tanks. Well sealed though, they love to climb out.

The 1st and 2nd videos were a good watch.  I will have to cue up the third one.

In reply to slefain :

My sister brought home the crayfish they were supposed to dissect in high school. It lived in a tank in our dining room for some time. It would do dives off a rock whenever it realized we were watching and one day didn't stick the landing.

Based on the number a views he's getting I'm presuming he is eating a lot of other lobsters behind the scenes lol

That keeps Leon in line. Like making your dog watch that Sarah Mclachlan commercial so he realizes how good he has it.

A fascinating, well-made lobster rehab video.  I'll give it two claws up.

It seems that the lobster's evolutionary process was: Can't do something? Just add limbs!

First valentines after we were married (22 years), our youngest was four.  My wife got live lobster for dinner.  Our daughter loved and played with them all afternoon, even giving them a bath in warm water (so they didn't get a chill!) before she happily tossed them in the pot.  I sort of lost my appetite hearing the fun she had with them before cooking them with glee.  She's currently working on getting into vet school so is still happy with both sides of animal husbandry.
