Explanation:

[STC003916] Do you feel like having lobster for dinner? There is a good chance that you can thank Maine for providing that luxury. For decades, Maine has produced far more lobster than any other state — in 2016 alone, Maine brought home 132 million pounds of lobster worth an astonishing $537.9 million. The state of Massachusetts finished in second place, a very distant second, with 17.7 million pounds. Together, these two states produced more than 94 percent of all the lobsters that are found in the United States. Lobsters may be found all along the Atlantic coast, from North Carolina to the northeastern part of Canada. Note: This does not include the spiny lobster, also known as rock lobster or langoustine, which are much smaller and are found in the much warmer waters of the Caribbean. The American lobster, on the other hand, can grow to be up to 100 years old and weigh up to 44 pounds during its lifetime.
