人道! 美國一餐廳讓龍蝦吸完大麻再上路!

A restaurant in Seawall, Maine, is known for cooking up "legendary" lobsters, but doesn't want the crustaceans to leave this world in pain. So, Charlotte's Legendary Lobster Pound says it's getting some lobsters high before they meet their maker.

美國緬因州海堤的一家餐館因烹飪“傳奇”級別的龍蝦而遠近馳名，但該餐館不希望龍蝦在痛苦中離開這個世界。因此，夏洛特傳奇龍蝦館表示，會在殺死部分龍蝦前給它們嗑藥。

"If we're going to take a life we have a responsibility to do it as humanely as possible," said Charlotte Gill, the restaurant's owner and an animal rights supporter.

餐廳老闆夏洛特·吉爾是一名動物權益支持者，她表示：“如果我們要奪取一條小生命，我們有責任儘可能地做到人道。”

Gill said she first tried the technique on a lobster named Roscoe.

吉爾稱，她最初是在一隻名爲羅斯科的龍蝦身上嘗試了這種技術。

Roscoe was placed in a box with about two inches of water. Marijuana smoke was blown into the water through a hole in the bottom, and Roscoe got "baked."

羅斯科被放進一個裝水的盒子裏，水深約2英寸，大麻的煙霧通過底部的一個洞被吹入水中，羅斯科被薰醉了。

Marijuana is legal in Maine and Roscoe seemed to enjoy his first time getting high -- he was much calmer when he was put back in the tank with other lobsters.

大麻在緬因州是合法的，首次吸大麻的羅斯科看起來很享受，當它被放回其它龍蝦所在的水箱時，看起來平靜了很多。

As a reward for his participation in the experiment, the lobster was returned back into the ocean, Gill told the Mount Desert Islander.

吉爾向《Mount Desert Islander》透露，作爲參與實驗的回報，該龍蝦隨後被送回了大海。

The experiment was a success and lobsters at the restaurant can now be sedated at the customer's request.

在試驗成功後，現在餐廳的龍蝦都可以應顧客要求接受大麻鎮靜。

"If we're going to take a life we have a responsibility to do it as humanely as possible," Gill said.

吉爾表示：“如果我們要結束生命，我們就有責任以最人道的方式去做。”
