However, the amount of time spent in a given area did not differ between the farm and reference sites. The only notable difference relating to time spent was related to size; large lobsters (> 90 mm carapace length) tended to spend more time inside the farm than small lobsters. In conclusion, mussel farm does not seem to have an attractive effect on lobsters. Despite a great density of lobsters under the mussel farm there may be a high turnover in the population, or the site carrying capacity for lobster has been reached. Competition also seems important; larger lobsters will better defend their territory compared to small lobsters, which may search for shelter in another, more suitable, environment. -- Mot(s) clé(s) en anglais : Aquaculture, Homarus americanus, Mytilus edulis, Interaction, Acoustic telemetry, Movement, Home range, Behavior. »--
