A lobster is an edible marine crustacean with stalked eyes, long antenna, and five pairs of legs. They are invertebrates, meaning they do not have a backbone. The front pair of a lobster's legs are called pincers, or claws. Lobsters use one claw from crushing and the other for feeding. Many people consider lobsters to be delicious, and the demand for fresh lobsters keeps many lobstermen working to fulfill that demand. Buoys are used to help lobstermen find their traps. They are usually attached to either end of a string of traps. A string can hold up to forty traps, but it is most common to have from fifteen to twenty.
