American Lobster (Homarus americanus) INNS
02 November 2016
American lobster is classified as an invasive non-native species in the UK because it is outside its natural range of North Eastern America and it can cause impacts to our local lobster and crab populations. Impacts are caused by outcompeting native populations for food and shelter and the spread of disease.
