Animal Facts:

The Japanese spiny lobster (Panulirus japonicus), or ise-ebi in Japanese, is a fascinating marine crustacean native to the Pacific Ocean, particularly around Japan, Taiwan, China, and Korea. This spiny lobster can grow up to 30 cm (12 in) in length and is known for its beautifully patterned shell and prominent, spiny antennae.

Unlike clawed lobsters, the Japanese spiny lobster lacks large pincers and instead relies on its long legs and spines for defense. It thrives in rocky reefs and warm coastal waters, playing a vital role in its ecosystem.

In Japan, the ise-ebi holds cultural and culinary significance. Served in high-class cuisine, it appears in dishes like sashimi, grilled lobster, or even in a dramatic preparation known as zankoku-yaki (roasting alive). It’s also a symbol of good fortune, often featured in celebrations like New Year’s feasts.

This species is a commercial treasure in Japan, with strict fishing regulations in place to protect its population and ensure sustainable harvesting.
