Yes they do. Yes, but for those who are still frightened can always find a volunteer. Yes we do. The servers do take the live lobster to the kitchen and tell them how to prepare it.

Lobsters are only suitable for use in normal-sized fish tanks when they are small juveniles. They are suitable for an aquarium tank for a few years but will eventually out-grow the tank as they reach full adulthood.

Ideally, a new intake should be inspected for mortalities every few hours, but all tanks must be inspected at least once daily. Prompt removal of all dead and moribund lobsters is essential, otherwise decomposition of the corpses will soon affect water quality adversely.

Yes, apparently lobsters can live for a very long time. Scientists have found that lobsters don't show signs of aging, which could mean that a lobster may live forever if it's not killed or malnourished. The oldest captive lobster on record was 140 years of age.

How long can lobster live out of water? A good hard-shell lobster can live up to 36 hours out of water if kept cool, moist and refrigerated. Since lobster is a gill breather wet newspaper and/or seaweed helps keep them moist. Since lobsters are seawater creatures never store them in fresh water.

Should they die and you've kept them cold, you can still cook them. According to State of Maine food safety experts, dead lobster can be consumed safely up to 24 hours from time of death, if refrigerated properly at or below 38°F (the temperature of the average home refrigerator).

Lobsters and other shellfish have harmful bacteria naturally present in their flesh. Once the lobster is dead, these bacteria can rapidly multiply and release toxins that may not be destroyed by cooking. You therefore minimise the chance of food poisoning by cooking the lobster alive.

Lobsters are not poisonous if they die before cooking, but you should cook them quickly. Many lobsters sold commercially are killed and frozen before cooking.
