A restaurant in Seawall, Maine, is known for cooking up "legendary¹" lobsters³, but doesn't want the crustaceans⁴ to leave this world in pain. So, Charlotte's Legendary Lobster² Pound says it's getting some lobsters high before they meet their maker⁵.

美国缅因州海堤的一家餐馆因烹饪“传奇”级别的龙虾而远近驰名，但该餐馆不希望龙虾在痛苦中离开这个世界。因此，夏洛特传奇龙虾馆表示，会在杀死部分龙虾前给它们嗑药。

"If we're going to take a life we have a responsibility to do it as humanely⁶ as possible," said Charlotte Gill, the restaurant's owner and an animal rights supporter.

餐厅老板夏洛特·吉尔是一名动物权益支持者，她表示：“如果我们要夺取一条小生命，我们有责任尽可能地做到人道。”

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

吉尔称，她最初是在一只名为罗斯科的龙虾身上尝试了这种技术。

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."

罗斯科被放进一个装水的盒子里，水深约2英寸，大麻的烟雾通过底部的一个洞被吹入水中，罗斯科被熏醉了。

人道! 美国一餐厅让龙虾吸完大麻再上路!

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.

大麻在缅因州是合法的，首次吸大麻的罗斯科看起来很享受，当它被放回其它龙虾所在的水箱时，看起来平静了很多。

As a reward for his participation⁷ in the experiment, the lobster was returned back into the ocean, Gill told the Mount Desert Islander.

吉尔向《Mount Desert Islander》透露，作为参与实验的回报，该龙虾随后被送回了大海。

The experiment was a success and lobsters at the restaurant can now be sedated⁸ at the customer's request.

在试验成功后，现在餐厅的龙虾都可以应顾客要求接受大麻镇静。

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

吉尔表示：“如果我们要结束生命，我们就有责任以最人道的方式去做。”
