Lobsters Have The Most Bizarre Mating Ritual

The lobster uses urine as a way to "talk" with other lobsters due to the location of its bladder, which is, interestingly enough, found beneath its brain (via New England Aquarium). When a lobster wants to release pheromones, it will pee out of a spot under its antennae, with the urine reaching lengths of seven times the length of the lobster itself. It comes into play for male lobsters when they defend their territory.

Lobsters are known to be very territorial creatures, and because of this, they tend to be defensive of their own personal stake in the ocean. One way they do this is by backing into a cave, with the front part of their body face forward, which allows them to defend themselves with their claws against predators or other males looking to take over their region. Not only are they in a good defensive stance, but this allows them to communicate with potential female partners as well.
