An ultra rare lobster has been spotted in Britain for the first time.<\/p>\n

Chances of finding a blue Lobster are said to be an eye-watering one in two million.<\/p>\n

However, it has finally been seen and caught by a local fisherman in the Plymouth Sound in Devon.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, the bloke who found it has returned it, after it was handed over to not-for-profit The Ships Project.<\/p>\n

Mallory Haas, 38, from the organisation said she was "surprised" to see the creature, which she had never seen before in the wild.<\/p>\n

United States-native Mallory said: \u201cI'd never seen a lobster underwater that blue.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI've seen some in a tank with bits of blue on them, that is quite common, but totally blue is very rare.<\/p>\n

\u201cI've seen one in a tank before that was very white, like a ghost, but this one was almost aqua blue all down her legs.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fisherman who gave her to us said he had decided to release it because of how rare it was, and wanted us to return it to the water.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was such a surprise, but she was lovely.\u201d<\/p>\n

The lobster is thought to be aged around 50-years-old and scientists are baffled at what actually makes them blue.<\/p>\n

For most, lobsters are a deep reddish orange colour.<\/p>\n
