The restaurant chain said employees at the location in Manassas spotted the colorful crustacean in delivery of live lobsters and decided it was too rare of a find to end up on a dinner plate.
The invertebrate will live out the rest of its life at the Virginia Living Museum, said the restaurant. Experts said that the lobster’s calico coloring is caused by a rare mutation found in an estimated one in 30 million lobsters, UPI reported.
