'Extraordinarily rare' split-colored lobster caught in Ea...

They hit the lobs-ttery.

A Massachusetts fishing crew made the catch of a lifetime after nabbing a super-rare split-colored lobster off the coast of Cape Cod last Thursday.

The dual-colored crustacean had been spotted by the fishing vessel the Timothy Michael on Thursday and shared on Facebook by their parent company Wellfleet Shellfish.

The accompanying pic shows the bi-colored critter, which is perfectly divided into two distinct halves — one brown and one orange — like the shellfish version of the Batman baddie “Two-face.”

“Split lobsters like this are extraordinarily rare,” the seafood purveyor wrote.

According to Popular Science, there is a one-in-50 million chance that a lobster will be born with this unique color scheme, which is a genetic defect that’s caused when fertilized, unlaid eggs contact each other with one absorbing the other.

Along with being blessed with two sets of genetic info, the lobster is able to display pigments differently on either side of its shell.

However, this bi-chromatic effect can also occur due to other factors such as genetic mosaicism, a pigment aberration during development or gynandromorphism, when an organism is half-male, half-female, per WCVB.

Thankfully, the lobster’s unique color scheme saved it from the pot.

The Wellfleet fishing company donated this creature double feature to the Woods Hole Science Aquarium in southeastern Massachusetts, where its unique coloration will be studied.

The claw-some creature eventually be on display for all the public to see after the institution reopens after a major renovation in 2027.

Aquarium biologist Julia Studley said that the lobster will give visitors the chance to see “genetics at work in a very iconic local species.

“This animal is not only fascinating to look at but also serves as a great reminder of how intricate genetic mechanisms are and how much we should thank them for the diversity we see in the world around us!” she gushed.

Meanwhile, Wellfleet is ultimately glad the lobster got a stay of execution.

“When something that rare comes across our docks, we see it as part of our role to share it with the broader community—Woods Hole Science Aquarium was the perfect fit for this lucky lobster,” Wellfleet Shellfish Company Chief Operating Officer Dan Brandt told Popular Science.
