PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP) — A New Hampshire lobsterman has joined an elite club after catching a rare blue lobster.
The Portsmouth Herald reports Greg Ward initially thought he had snagged an albino lobster when he examined his catch off the coast Monday where New Hampshire borders Maine.
The Rye lobsterman quickly realized his hard-shell lobster was a unique blue and cream color.
The oft-cited odds of catching a blue lobster are 1 in 2 million. But no one knows for sure.
He gave the rare crustacean to the Seacoast Science Center in Rye to study and put on display.
