This lobster will not be on anyone’s plate anytime soon.

What is claimed to be the largest lobster in the world is a sculpture that is composed of approximately 90 tons of concrete and reinforced steel; and was created by an artist named Winston Bronnum.

This giant crustacean rests on a base that weighs 32 tons is located at the entrance of Shediac Rotary Park in the town of Shediac in New Brunswick in Canada. The sculpture was inaugurated back in 1990 as part of the forty-first edition of the annual Shediac Lobster Festival.

After viewing the sculpture, we decided to head over to a restaurant located nearby called Lobster Deck to dine on a lobster roll for lunch.
