I think it's awesome the fishermen recognized what a unique creature this is and opted to donate it for display.

Wow, that's neat and good on the fishermen.

... That being said there's an discussion on evolution in the comments.  And by discussion I mean "People claiming that evolution is fake"

Why did you have to point that out? I had to read the comment now and they're all brain melting. The creationists are as bad as the idiots who said they should have eaten it.

You sound surprised. You shouldn't be surprised. Why are you surprised?

I'm not surprised.  I'm not even disappointed.  Just annoyed.

I, for one, welcome our new mutated crustacean overlords. Hopefully no hard feelings about the whole 'eating their lesser brethren' deal.

The only comments I'm seeing are the long list of fish puns.

Why would they? If they're the master race of lobster, they were gonna do it themselves.

The evolution argument was a bit further down.

Seen that as well and really don't find it amusing as I did once before. I'm pretty desensitized to those kinds of debate online now and just go 'meh' when I see them.

It's good that the fishermen had a sense to send the lobster to a museum rather than eating it.

But the story isn't even about a fish.  They're not even remotely related (ignoring as well the fact that in taxonomy there is no such thing as a fish).

It's like making horse puns in the comments section of a story about a snake.  It makes no sense.

You forget, all underwater creatures are "fish", everything above water with an exoskeleton is a "bug", and China and Japan are interchangeable.

...To the common joe.

The Japanese bugfish is actually a Chinese spider squid.
