(ORDO NEWS) — A fisherman from Great Britain caught a rare lobster.
The man’s name is Stuart Brown, he is 28 years old and he can really be called a happy person. He caught a blue lobster. In nature, such occur 1 in 2 million.
The lucky boy from County Down quickly became popular in his hometown. When one of the rare lobsters ended up in his hands, he immediately thought that he could get a lot of it.
Such individuals are worth thousands of pounds. Agree, it’s not bad when you become several thousand richer for one fishing trip.

In nature, lobsters have a brown shell color. In rare cases, the color can be red, yellow and even orange. Blue individuals are one of the rarest.
Apart from the color of the chitinous cover, they are no different from their counterparts. The taste of meat, texture, aroma are no different.
The exoskeleton will also turn red when cooked, scientists say. Therefore, you should not hunt such handsome men, it is better to let them live in the natural environment.
Scientists say that blue lobsters are the result of a mutation in their genes.
In such specimens, the protein responsible for the color of the exoskeleton is produced in excess. When there is too much of it, a blue lobster is produced.
