On what research do you base this statement? Stating that predators "try" to do something, indicates they would be thinking.
If you have some links with that type of information, I'd be willing to read them.
Personally, I'm not going to worry to much about a crab or lobster. They treat each other pretty brutally in the wild, a quick dunk in rolling boil and then some drawn butter doesn't seem too inhumane to me.
