Q: How come scrabs are found in herds in Munch's Oddysee and scrabs are supposed to REALLY HATE EACH OTHER (that's what saves me in Abe's Oddysee from these Slick creatures!! )
Alf: One on one, they can be confrontational. But in one big group, they tend to get along, and just go with the crowd. Y'know, like people in general.

Q: I've got another question to ask you Alf. In your first two games Scrabs were extremely territorial but in the third they don't fight at all. What's up with that! -Jason
Alf: Well, I've never gotten close enough to a scrab to ask him, but they seem to be much less hostile in the outdoors. Captivity does something to a creature, you know? Makes every inch of space more valuable.

Q: Hello Alf, If Scrabs fight and kill each other every time they meet,how come they aren't extinct? Maybe they have some strange mating ritual whilst fighting,maybe they reproduce alone or is there another reason........Thanks for now........Long Live Abe !!! Johnny Q.
Alf: Yeah they fight a lot but they don't kill each other off every time. It's when you get two dominant Scrabs together that's when it gets REALLY ugly!

Q: I haven't played Munch's Oddysee - I haven't got an XBox - but I have read what I can about it. I've noticed in one review that at one point you get chased by a herd of scrabs. A herd of scrabs?! Shouldn't a herd of scrabs rapidly become a smaller herd of full scrabs and then down to one exceedingly fat scrabs? Mind you, there must be some way that they can interact peacefully in order to procreate. I'm really curious to find out more. Please enlighten me. ...("-")
Alf: Well the procreation doesn’t have to be peaceful. Of course in our fairy tale minds we want it to be but it isn’t always so. As you may know creatures often act completely different in large groups. The larger the group, the stranger things get. Hey, wait a minute, why haven’t you played Munch’s Oddysee? I don’t have time for this drivel! Poof! Be gone!
