“…As red is inherently intimidating in freshwater fishes and terrestrial species (Barlow, 1983;Vercken and Clobert, 2008), and size differences can increase agonistic behavior in captive lobsters and catchability in wild J. edwardsii lobsters (Frusher et al, 2003;Thomas et al, 2003), there was concern that the SP lobsters might be at a disadvantage when introduced into the territory of LR lobsters due to color, size, and prior residence dominance and disorientation upon release. A larger translocation experiment using lobsters from the same source site but translocated to other sites on the Tasmanian coast was effective at changing the color, growth rate, body shape, and size, increasing the value and nutrition of the seafood product (Chandrapavan et al, 2009a(Chandrapavan et al, ,b, 2010(Chandrapavan et al, , 2011aGreen et al, 2010). For an assisted migration and restocking to be successful, transplants must survive and prosper in their new environment, establishing residences and home ranges (HRs), thereby increasing productivity (Hilborn, 1998;Bell et al, 2006Bell et al, , 2008.…”
