Please, what is the other animal whose meat can be obtained without killing it? Its mention made me want to know and I can't find this information anywhere. I'm sure I'm not the only one who is curious about this. It's a bit maddening. Perhaps it can be mentioned in passing? Thanks.

This is a really old comment, but the original comment likely was referring to octopus. You can cut off an octopus tentacle and it will regrow as if it was never cut off (as opposed to the lizards whose tails regrow but are not to the same quality as the original). Here’s an article about the regrowth https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/octopus-chronicles/how-octopus-arms-regenerate-with-ease/ EliotWL ( talk) 20:37, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
(nitpicking:) The article says... "mortality rates are 47% for doubly-amputated crabs and 28% for single amputees. Consequently fishers are encouraged to harvest only one claw to increase the crab's chances of survival".
If 100 single amputation are performed, then, on average, 72 survive. Of the survivors, 72 x 0.28 = 20 die from a second single amputation (assuming mortality is independent of the number of amputations, which is the best we can do with the data given). That leaves 52 survivors from the original 100 crabs. So the mortality rate of a crab surviving two single amputations is 48%, about the same as double amputees. If we are confined to just the information given here, it would seem better to harvest with double amputations. This would result in better hauls for less effort, and reduce the population of single amputees releasing ecological resources for uninjured crabs. -- Epipelagic ( talk) 07:14, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
