Rare Calico Lobster Makes Debut
A 1-in-30-million calico lobster, nicknamed Jackie, has made her debut at Northeastern University's Marine Science Center in Massachusetts.
Jackie's unique colors are due to a mixture of chemical compounds. She is joining other Halloween-themed animals, such as spiders and bats, as a nature ambassador.
Jackie is a calico lobster and the odds of catching a crustacean like this are about one-in-30 million.
- Caught off the coast of Massachusetts by lobsterman Mike Tufts.
- More rare than the center's other recent star, Neptune the blue lobster, with odds of one-in-two million.
