I know that lobsters have a nervous system that is not as complex as the human nervous system. I also know they can react to damaging stimuli. But can they actually feel pain?
Please don't tell me to do an Internet search on the subject. I have done searches and most of the information I have found comes from sites that are obviously biased. The point of Yahoo answers is to get answers, not get feedback telling me to search.

I am looking for a definitive, unbiased scientific answer to the question, not a obvious suggestions about how to research the answer.

There is a ton of disagreement on this subject.

Do a search for lobsters and pain and you'll find sites that talk about both sides of the story.

Hey submitter, sorry you are too lazy to figure this out on your own. Like I said, there is a ton of disagreement. Some scientists will tell you one thing and some will tell you another. How is anyone supposed to have the "right" answer for you?
