Lobsters can be considered a renewable resource when managed sustainably. Proper regulations, such as size limits, catch quotas, and seasonal closures, help ensure that lobster populations can replenish themselves. However, overfishing, habitat destruction, and climate change pose significant threats to their sustainability. Effective management practices are essential to maintain healthy lobster populations for the future.
a small lobster...
Yes, all arthropods including lobsters are invertebrate, meaning they have no backbone. Instead they implement a strategy of using an outer skeleton (exoskeleton) which obviates the need for vertebrae (but which also can impose other physical limits such as maximum size of the organism).
No, the internet defies size limits.
The taste tends to be the same regardless of size (although some people say that the meat in a smaller lobster tend to be a little sweeter). What is different is the texture of the meat - it tends to get a bit tougher as the lobster grows. This means that the tail meat starts becoming a bit chewy above about 3 or 4 pounds or so, although the meat in the claws of larger (5 pounds+ ) lobsters is tastier (and of course the meat inside the central body, and the eight little "feelers", of the lobster is easier to pick out of a larger lobster).
According to the Guinness World Records, the largest lobster was caught in Nova Scotia, Canada, and weighed 20.15 kilograms (44.4 lb). - Wikipedia.
