The media is buzzing about a lobster named Bowie found in Maine that is two sexes and two colors (“Rare lobster found in Maine is 2 genders and 2 colors,” Nov. 30). Bowie is rare. But all lobsters are unique.

While lobsters look different from humans, they are intelligent, complex animals with a sophisticated nervous system that enables them to feel pain. Lobsters suffer when torn apart or boiled alive.

Every lobster is a “me,” not meat. See the individual. Go vegan.
