    Re: Snake w/ foot found?

    That's disturbing... if I saw that thing in my bedroom in the middle of the night I probably wouldn't have killed it but i'd freak out.

    Re: Snake w/ foot found?

    I have a feeling with will turn out to be nothing more that a growth for some sort like a tumor or something that has grown over time to resemble a leg and foot.

    theories are not fact until they happen and haven't we learned from discovery channel/animal planet with their snake productions not to believe everything they put out there?

    i am still a bit skeptical about this leg.
    They've grown chickens with teeth and long dino like tails in the lab before by adding certain horomones and chemicals to the embryo in certain areas. I don't think they've ever had chick like that hatch though because they take the embryo out of the eat and kill, dye, and look at them under a microscope. All the genes are already there, they just need to break down the genetic code and and figure out which hormones and chemicals they need to use inorder to awaken dormant genes.
