Is P.R. China infested with River Crabs?

It seems that P.R. China is infested with River Crabs - or at least cyber P.R. China.

Would you, the forumites and mods of the China Daily BBS tend to agree with that assessment?

If there are too many river crabs, just catch them for me, put them in a box and forward the box to me. I love river crabs. Very delicious. Hmmmmmm
