to cannibalism in order to survive catastrophic events. Provides
examples of the 1992 air crash in the Andes and the Donner Party in the
winter of 1846-1847 in which the survivors ate the flesh of those that
died in order to live themselves. Concludes with an example of the
psychological deviancy of cannibalism in such cases as that of serial
