Thousands of the amphibians have died in recent days in a pond in Hamburg's Altona district, with their bodies swelling to bursting point. The toads' entrails are propelled for up to a metre (3.2ft), in scenes that have been likened to science fiction. Scientists are baffled. Possible explanations include a unknown virus or a fungus in the pond.

What - no video?
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the recycled 2003 closest pass of Mars that gets repeated every year now, except embellished with "disk visible the size of the moon". Funny and scary, I agree.
