    Re: Newt uses ribs as weapons

    How interesting! I wonder what compelled this animal to evolve like this. To clarify, what happened over and over for tens of thousands of years for this animal to gain such a spectacular and unordinary adaptation? Do you think it intentionally does this and can control it or, is it subsequent of a chemical reaction? Again very interesting.
