Darn!
I sure was hoping for a better explanation of the exploding frog mystery than this, it's just too mundane.
Let's see... a cloning lab is irradiating frogs to use their genetic material to fill in the gaps in fossil harvested dinosaur DNA in an effort to make dinos for exhibit. One of the frogs escapes and is found by an evil government scientist who discovers it's "explosive potential." Using DNA from the left over bits he clones another one, this time mixing it with whale DNA, and feeding the result a steady diet of weapons grade plutonium laced mosquitoes. The result is the ultimate weapon, a six-foot tall frog that when threatened, blows up in a nuclear explosion.
Now a veterinary surgeon, Frank Mutschmann, who has examined the remains of the toads, said they had been pierced with a single peck by crows trying to eat their livers. This in turn caused the toads to explode.I may have to quit blogging to write a movie script about this.
"The toads swell up as a form of self-defense. But when their livers are taken away and their stomachs are punctured, their blood vessels explode, their lungs collapse and the other organs come out," Mutschmann said.
