A lobster has ten legs.

This makes them a member of the decapod (meaning “ten-footed”) family, which also includes creatures like crabs and shrimp. The front two legs of the lobster are modified into large claws. The larger, bulkier claw is used for crushing, while the smaller, sharper claw is used for cutting. The remaining eight legs are used for walking and are located on the thorax, the section behind the lobster’s head.
