Man Catches 'One in Two Million' Blue Lobster, And Throws It Back Into The Water

Hopley said he suffered a crisis of conscience and decided to spare its life and even named it Larry. Hopley gave the lobster to Sea Life in Manchester, where it continues to live, reported BBC News. Hopley said he hadn't seen anything like this before. I knew the morally right thing to do was to find him a home where everybody could appreciate him, he said. I found out it was really rare, so I thought 'I can't kill this, I don't want to'. We couldn't see it through and put it on the menu. We spent hours contacting places. I was worried about how long it could spend outside the water so I called a load of different small aquatics shops and everyone was really helpful.
