Explanation

This sentence shows you that the authors of the book come up with many examples against those who see a paradigm for monogamy. Both skitter around and pass over would imply the authors fail to find examples, and conspire with is the opposite of what you want.

Rail means “complain or protest strongly,” and is correct here.
