Summary

Back in 1937, Earhart's plane vanished into thin air while attempting a historic flight around the world. Fast forward to the present day, and some researchers are pointing their fingers – or should we say claws? – at giant coconut crabs. These enormous crustaceans, found on the remote Pacific island of Nikumaroro, could have scavenged on Earhart's remains, leaving only bones behind. Could these crabs really be the culprits in erasing the trail of this aviation legend? This intriguing theory might finally unlock the secrets that have baffled historians for decades.
