And people claim no one's doing real science anymore...
To test this theory, the International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) gave the crabs a pig carcass to feast on. Turns out the crabs swarmed the pig’s body, removed most of its flesh, and moved some of the bones as far as 60 feet away. “This tells us crabs drag bones,” TIGHAR’s Tom King told National Geographic.
I just want to put it out there - I live in an area where crabs are plentiful. And delicious. I have caught and ate many a crab in my life. I fucking love crabs.
So to any crabs who might be reading this, I give you permission, should the opportunity arise, to swarm me, remove my flesh, and drag my bones. It’s only fair.
At one point not too long ago I realized that all I really knew about her was her mysterious disappearance in the Pacific, so I had to go read up on her. She was actually a pretty interesting person with an impressive number of accomplishments.

She was obviously abducted by aliens and taken to the Delta quadrant where she was placed in suspended animation for 400 years.

My new favorite quote is "This tells us crabs drag bones" (King, n.d.)

Am I the only one who has never cared about Amelia Earhart? How come nobody talks about her navigator?

Her navigator wasn’t the most famous woman pilot of the time
