A practitioner took a scab from someone with a mild case, made an incision in the skin of a healthy person, and infected that person with the scab. Sheep-scab is a loathsome skin disease due to an acarian parasite.
I did find this link, but I don't think it will help out much, because there is nothing on the internet about it, other than this. http://en.allexperts.com/q/Wild-Animals-705/frozen-crab-life-thawed.htm. Or you can go to this link. Its about frozen lobsters coming back to life after thawed.
Since almost all the meat is in their tails, when you buy frozen lobster tails you almost always get warm water lobster tails. Cold water lobsters are usually sold whole because the claw meat is so highly prized. Warm water lobsters can grow to one pound in weight within two to three years and can add a pound a year.
