Lobster Molting (Night Vision)
New England Aquarium Marine Mammal Trainers Justin and Erin went to do a training session with the lobsters and they caught one of Justin’s lobsters in the middle of molting. This video shows you the end of the molting process. It was taken with “night vision” which is why the lobster is green with creepy glowing eyes. He is just about all the way out of his old shell. You can see the used shell on the bottom right hand side of the screen. www.neaq.org

Oh gosh. That is incredibly creepy looking. Like something out of Cloverfield.
Really interesting video. I never saw a lobster molt before.
