Red like shrimp ... alive
French fishermen were surprised when they caught a live lobster with a red crust like the color of the boiled shrimp. The 600gr female shrimp, named ' Rackham red ', is about 3-5 years old, yellowish-red, caught at a depth of 40m off Carteret (the English Channel).
It became the "nail" of the coastal city of Cherbourg from 19-12. Mr. Pierre - Yves Bouis, in charge of the biological area of the coastal city, said that this is a rare case and it has not been explained: genetics or lack of pigmentation or molting .
