Did the yellow lobster die from stress?
Sunday, August 15
|

Tyler, the 1 in 30 million,yellow lobster has died. The reason given by the folks at the URI bay campus is that the yellow lobster was "stressed out" due to all the attention it was getting.Excuse me? They claim he did not like all the attention and was put in a cold water tank alone. Sounds like solitary confinement to me. |

A lobsterman catches a yellow lobster in the waters of Rhode Island 2 weeks ago. How rare? It makes news world-wide and we find out the yellow lobster he names "Tyler" is 1 in 30 million. He could have sold it, but instead he gives it to the Bay campus at URI. He should have driven to Mystic and it would still be alive. |

URI says it died from the stress of of becoming so famous. So are animals in the zoo feeling stress? I would think it is more stressful being held over boiling water like most lobsters caught. URI claims people looking at the lobster made it stressful. |

Heads should roll at the bay campus. |
