Bit if a misleading title "Those crabs, the theory goes, ate Earhart after she perished on the island."
The theory is not that a bunch of toddler sized crabs ate her alive like a horror movie

Thank goodness. I hate suicide, but faced with an aggressive swarm of determined coconut crabs while badly injured, I might check myself out.

The bones found on the island weren't Amelia's.
