Whoever added this line was missing the point:
- "They will grab at each other in a futile "king of the hill" fight for survival, which eventually ensures their collective demise"
They will fight to prevent the stronger crabs from getting out of the bucket. Rather than being a "fight for survival", it is a fight to ensure that no one succeeds in escaping and they all go down together. Firebrace (talk) 22:17, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- That line is phrased so as to ascribe this sort of intentionally to crabs. Maybe it should be qualified in some way? 79.173.58.246 (talk) 03:06, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
