BOSTON (CBS) – The New England Aquarium, home to a colorful assortment of unusual lobsters, has unveiled another shade.

Patriot Seafoods of Salem donated a rare yellow lobster to the aquarium. Caught by lobsterman Bill Porter of Marblehead, yellow lobsters are an estimated 1-in-30 million find in the wild.

“This pale yellow joins other oddly colored lobsters including a blue, orange, calico, and the Aquarium’s Halloween lobster, which is orange on one side and black on the other,” the aquarium said.

The collection of colorful crustaceans was displayed in a spoked array pattern Thursday for photographers.

1. Sick question?

Are they all orange when you cook them?

2. I have never eaten lobster

(partially because of cost and partially because I rarely eat sea food), so I looked it up and after they are cooked all lobsters turn red after being cooked regardless of pigmentation.

3. Thanks for the research.

I knew it!
