    Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
    You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
    On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
    You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
    Then you Stand

    Re: Fungus Killing Frogs!!

    From the above page:



    "The [fungal] disease has eliminated 120 frog species so far. It suffocates frogs by thickening their skin so that oxygen can't flow in and carbon dioxide can't escape.

    When we find frogs who are about to die, they are standing on the very tips of their toes, straining to expose as much skin as possible".


    Doesnt sound like a great way to go......
    ~ 1.0.0 Python regius ~ Wild-type ~

    1.0.0 Canis familiaris ~ Blue Italian Greyhound ~

    ~ 0.0.9 Danio rerio~ Wild-type and Glofish
