Giant lobster

Weighing 4.5 kg, nearly 1 meter long - three times the size of normal big shrimp, the Lemmy lobster body is 50 years old 'so big' that no pan can fit. Lemmy was very pleased with its ideal shelter: in an old soup pot under the seabed of Le Manche Canal, until it was discovered by 51-year-old diver Chris Hovard in Dorset (England).

For the first time in the life of divers Hovard witnessed a great shrimp like that, which was the reason for the hourly chase in the bottom of the southwestern sea of ​​England, but neither humans nor shrimp seemed to be soaked. tired.

The chase ended in vain, causing Hovard to sadly think that he would never see the rare shrimp again. But unexpectedly returning to the old boiler, the two giants abruptly fluttered like challenges. However, with a quick pincer movement, Hovard caught the crustacean nearly half a century old with a rope bag.

'Its back is great, the width may be even longer than a glove' - the expert diver told. 'It was ugly, aggressive and immediately made me think of singer Lemmy in the band Motörhead'.

Thankfully, the exceptionally oversized body has helped Lemmy shrimp escape the ' onto the plate ' outcome. Its new residence is now an aquarium at the Weymouth Marine Life Center (UK).
