The knights of the deep are on the move; almost no part of their bodies is without armor. Like medieval warriors, these fighters are well armed – not with sword and shield, but with scissors and forceps and defensive armor that is covered with spikes and hooks. And even though they are well protected and have an uncanny awareness of their surroundings, many of these proud knights will face a gloomy destiny. Many of them will end upon a plate.
Gourmets all over the world are in love with these famous crustaceans: lobsters! For marine biologists lobsters are similarly fascinating: as research objects. We are on their trail in Cape Breton, an island in the northern Atlantic and part of the Canadian province Nova Scotia, where one of the largest populations of lobsters has its home.

I had no idea that sea anemones could swim, or even clams for that matter. I love watching these videos of the world beneath the waves.

I keep a 1.5lb male Maine Lobster, and he is amazing. His awareness and manipulation of his environment, as well of his use of tools ( including me) is simply jaw-dropping.

An amazing documentary. Canada's land and seas are very beautiful. I loved that you described everything in decimal system, not like those documentaries that talk about feet, inches, miles, pounds and Farenheit degrees; that old fashion English system that only the US is using nowadays. Thanks
