The National Lobster Hatchery would not be complet

The National Lobster Hatchery would not be complete without a resident ‘Giant Lobster’! Thanks to @robwing1955 @thecornishfishmonger we now have this massive beast of a lobster here waiting to meet you all! Look at the size of that crusher claw! You wouldn’t want to shake hands with him that’s for sure 😬 #lobsterlove #bigdaddy #beastsoftheocean #monsterclaw #marineconservation #padstow #saveourseas #sustainableliving #pioneering #hatchery #wildlife #amazingnature

LOOK THE EGGS ON THAT 👀!! What an absolute beau

LOOK THE EGGS ON THAT 👀!! What an absolute beauty of a berried hen she is! Her 1000’s of eggs will hatch into many baby lobsters here at the hatchery which we will safely raise until they are around 6 weeks to 3 months old, when we’ll release them into the wild with a much better chance of survival. At this point in their lifecycle the baby lobsters will be ‘benthic’ (bottom dwelling) so they burrow under the ground making them much less susceptible to predators...! 🦞❤️#luckylobsters #natureisamazing #bigmumma #marineconservation #lobsterlove #eggtastic #sustainableseafood #berried #saveourseafood #protectouroceans
