Take 35-45 minutes to die

Horrible 😥

Scream 😞

"Lobsters don't have vocal cords, and even if in agony, they cannot vocalise. The high pitched sound made by an overheating lobster is caused by expanding air rushing out of small holes in lobsters' bodies, like a whistle being blown. A dead lobster will “scream” just as loudly as if it was living"

Torture

When other animals, including humans, experience extreme pain, their nervous system may shut down as a coping mechanism. Zoologists have found that lobsters and other crustaceans don't have this ability to go into 'shock' so when they are exposed to cruel procedures (such as having their claws or 'tail-meat' torn off or being boiled alive) — their suffering is prolonged.

What do you think happens to them in the wild when their tails are torn off by non human predators lol.

Notice I didn't say claws cause they have the ability to regrow claws, antenna, and legs after shedding when injured or diseased. Doesn't cause pain either, according to what I've read.

And those claws aren't decorative, they use em to crush clams and oysters, muscles and shrimps. Are you gonna cry about the shrimps suffering too 😂😂

Reasons like this that I stick to veggies.

The lobster thing haunted me for some time. I never ate it...

Ya, I didn't know they did that and its kinda mortifying

It really is

So veggies are not alive before we harvest them? Maybe they scream too? Lol

They kinda do or so I have heard. You know the smell of fresh cut grass after you mow your lawn? Scientists been saying that smell is an alarm smell to signal other grass that there is something cutting them to pieces. Some plants also known to produce poison when it is harmed or harvested.
