Help to stop restaurants that serve LIVE lobster, and end this horrific cruelty.

The Issue

Research has finally shown that Lobsters and other invertebrates actually do feel pain and show signs of stress when put in inhumane conditions, much less served alive. When making Lobster Sashimi, the lobster is prepared while it is alive and is then served usually still squirming and moving their legs while it is being consumed. Please help to stop and bring awareness to this absolutely horrible, unnecessary act that goes on and hopefully bring an end to the pain these creatures have experienced for so long.

“Hello everyone! Thank you to all who have signed the petition to stop restaurants that serve Lobster Sashimi. We are making great progress and are getting close to 800 signatures! I truly appreciate the support and let's aim to keep it going! I've been searching for restaurants that serve these poor creatures alive and plan to send the petition directly to them, with all the great comments you all have posted below. I want to keep the petition going a few weeks longer and then will send it out to those cruel restaurants. Please let me know if there are any restaurants in your area that serve Lobster Sashimi and I will be sure to send the petition to them in hopes that they will get this ridiculous, inhumane, and horrible "item" off their menus. Thank you again to everyone and we are getting closer everyday to hopefully helping these poor Lobsters to not be tortured by being eaten alive! ”
