Were There Favre Beans and a Nice Chiante Involved?
This is simply too weird to ignore:
More than 1,000 toads have puffed up and exploded in a Hamburg pond in recent weeks, and German scientists have no explanation for it.
But wait, there may be an explanation after all:
One German scientist studying the remains has a theory: Hungry crows are pecking out their livers. "The crows are clever," said Frank Mutschmann, a Berlin veterinarian who collected and tested specimens at the Hamburg pond. "They learn quickly from watching other crows how to get the livers."
Was it really necessary to state that the crows were hungry? I hardly think that was being disputed by anyone.
I was going to do this whole bit about silence of the frogs, but I'm on vacation and I'm tired.
