Lobsters live in the muck and mud of the deep.  Lobster claws are so strong that they can break a man’s hand!  They also shed their shells or molt.  Their eggs are called roe.  They sometimes are bright blue!  Lobsters eat clams, sea snails, and crabs.  As a small lobster, what eats you are fish, such as wolffish.  When you are a big lobster, your main predators are people.  Some fun facts are that lobsters can age up to one hundred years!  They were considered poor men’s food back in colonial times, and kings and queens would not eat them.

I am an ant.  I live in New York City.  There are so many people and skyscrapers.  I live under some trees in Central Park.  Here there is plenty of food—day old hot dogs, leftover bags of chips, kids’ old peanut butter sandwiches, pizza, and anything else you can think of.  Life around here is exciting!  Here comes a boy on a skateboard.  See what I mean?  This is life around here, especially if you are small.
