	Lobster - LoveToKnow 1911
		In Europe the lobsters are generally sent to market in the fresh state, but in America, especially in the northern New England states and in the maritime provinces of Canada, the canning of lobsters is an important industry.
		The European lobster rarely reaches 10 pounds in weight, though individuals of 14 pounds have been found, and in America there are authentic records of lobsters weighing 20 to 23 pounds.
		The imposition of a close time to protect the spawning lobsters has been often tried, but as the female carries the spawn attached to her body for nearly twelve months after spawning it is impossible to give any effective protection by this means.

		New lobster life begins as thousands of fertilized, bead-sized, pine green eggs (about 1 mm in diameter) are pushed out of the oviducts through openings at the base of the female's third walking legs.
		Lobsters have three distinct, planktonic larval stages, all of which are found at the water surface during daylight hours and bright moonlight.
		Larval lobsters are not particularly capable swimmers so their gross movements are largely controlled by the direction of wind and water currents, which happen to be onshore during periods of larval release.
