Yet another example of survival of the fittest. Who are we humans to interfere with that?

“We ran transects up the slope and discovered hundreds and hundreds of king crabs, which could translate into millions across broad expanses of coastal Antarctica,” he said. “They are adults, males and females. They appear healthy and have all the ingredients needed to produce a healthy population.”

Mayhaps the article details whether these are different than Alaskan King Crabs (and I somehow missed it) but if NOT, this is hardly a problem but a huge benefit, considering what those little buggers (and one of my all time favorite foods, which I can afford only occasionally) costs.

Naturally, I didn't miss whereby (like every other ill in the world) this is blamed on GORE-BULL WARMING and eeevil tourist, i.e. "HUMANS!".

My only surprise is that they didn't blame this on Bush!

Utter and complete geology FAIL.

The earth has warmed until it was devoid of ice entirely several times in the geological record.

There is nothing new under the sun.

This article looks like a contest to see how many times the word “could” can be used.

...could jeopardize cures for disease

Could also jeopardize the spread of some new, incurable obnoxious disease, as well. These brainiacs ever think of that?

The first thing that crossed my mind after reading this, is how do Alaskan king crabs in the far northern part of the globe wind up in the far southern part of the globe? There is an awful lot of ocean in between for them to traverse...even if they do have long legs.

Well if half the beaches here in MA are closed to the public because of a frigging bird then this argument is already settled.
LEAVE THE CRABS ALONE, AND DON’T COMPLAIN ABOUT IT!

At least that’s what they tell us beachgoers....

I heartily agree with other posters here. What an easy problem to solve! We must all do our bounden duty and eat them as fast as we can until they’re gone.

Since we’ll be performing a service to the environment, we should only have to pay shipping and handling, if that.

Presuming that some disease cure resides there is just a flight of fancy.
