Somebody almost had an incredibly rare dinner.

A caterer shopping at a market in England spotted two unusual-looking lobstersa> in one of the store’s tanks. When he looked into it, he discovered that two of the world’s rarest lobsters were sitting in the same tank.<

Initially, he says he thought the lobsters weren’t even real because of their color. It wasn’t until he inspected them up close that he saw that they were alive.

“Rob the fishmonger told me they were really, really rare lobsters and to get one in the tank was a one in 30 million chance so the chances of having two are one in a billion,” Lee explained. “It is like getting struck by lightning three times and surviving each time. To have not just one but two in the tank is unimaginable.”

The store’s manager, Anthony Burrage told SWNS, “We have donated them to Birmingham Sea Life center. After they arrived in the store from our delivery partners we realized they were unique and not the norm we called our Quality Assurance department and they did the rest. They called Birmingham Sea Life and they were collected on Saturday.”

The caterer explained, “I couldn’t bear the thought that these extremely rare creatures would end up on someone’s plate.

I’m glad they’ve been saved so they can be enjoyed by people.”
