Lokai The Lobster

This Main lobster is a one in 50 million mutation. Anyone know why I am calling the lobster Lokai?

Though interesting and unique, I don't see what makes this the main lobster. I grew up in Maine and there were plenty of lobsters 😉

My guess is that it is a chimera, not exactly a mutation but an 'accident' of reproduction.

Does this mean I eat half with regular butter, and half with beurre brun?

I agree with tadchem, it looks like a chimera.
