PEOPLE for the Ethical Treatment of Animals propose that Somerset County commissioners lease their jail for the world’s first Lobster Empathy Center.
Commissioner Chairman Phil Roy responds: “I’m shocked and I don’t know what to say. I didn’t realize Skowhegan was the coastal community PETA was looking for.”
Skowhegan is over 50 miles away from to Rockland, home of the Maine Lobster Festival and a lobster fishing port.
PETA said the center would feature interactive exhibits such as a human-size lobster trap where visitors can have their fingers wrapped in large rubber bands that will remain on for their entire visit.
