- American lobsters are found in the unusual Bras d'Or Lake system, where their population density is lower than in other Atlantic areas, but they hold cultural significance for the local Mi'kmaq community.

- Despite limited shelters in these preferred habitats, lobsters show less fear of predators, which permits them to explore more freely.
