Crabs, starfish, mussels and lobsters were ankle-deep in places along the Yorkshire coast. Most were dead – except for lobsters and the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust’s Living Seas team worked alongside local fisherman rescuing the lobsters that are still alive - gathering them in buckets and taking them to tanks in Bridlington for care - putting them back in the sea as weather improves.
