Sure, why not?, however this is not AAS. Besides, we actually have
evidence!!!! (what a novel thought). There are a number of primates that
live by the sea shore and eat various kinds of seafood (e.g. crab eating
macaque). This is fine, however saying that this led to bipedalism is
stretching the evidence (not AAS but some other kind of scenario).
