    Default Lobstrosities

    Seems that lobsters don't age, aren't subject to disease, and have only been observed to die of outside causes. Given a safe place and enough food, they just keep growing... according to this article, there could be a 100- or 200-pound lobster out in the ocean somewhere...

    They also tend to grow more fertile with age, instead of less....

    Don't be silly--you have a greater chance of getting killed with a hammer than by a lobster....
