    Not the National Enquirer but the BBC .
    An Iranian newspaper has reported the controversial story of a woman who claims to have given birth to a frog.

    It gets worse
    the paper carries quotes from medical experts who say there are human characteristics to the animal.

    In other words it could get a job in Comreg when its 18 .....sheeeesh.
    It has been speculated that the woman, who has not been named, unknowingly picked up the larva while she was swimming in a dirty pool.

    The rest of the gory details are on the BBC Website here

    Journalism at its best. Nothing like some good hard facts to get the masses stirred up. Frogs have larvae now do they? Like insects huh? So I wonder was it a frog or a tadpole that she gave birth to?

    She must have got some hop when she found out

    While it is unclear how this could have happened, the paper carries quotes from medical experts who say there are human characteristics to the animal.
    Human characteristics yeah...? Like what exactly? The frog has eyes! Oh my god, it has legs too! :rolleyes:

    read the article, dingus.
    But it quotes clinical biology expert Dr Aminifard as saying: "The similarities are in appearance, the shape of the fingers and the size and shape of the tongue."

    Tests are being carried out on the frog
    will this mutant testing never stop, paticularly on these human/frog variants. Frogs are people too! (according to this anyhow)

    i'd say its just another myth, i've heard the same one for other animals like lobsters, octopuses..etc. it definately couldn't have had human characteristics though, human cross breding with other animals simply cant happen... but what can happen, though its never been reported, is that if you swollow an octopus egg it can inside ya, in your belly giving the appearence of pregnancy, maybe summit similar happened with that frog. im getting increasingly worried about that tadpole i ate when i was six..

    Sounds like they got the story straight out of a Discworld novel, oh and did she really pick it up swimming in a dirty pool or was she interferring with some poor creature. Really the lengths some women will go just to get off, you'd never catch a man getting up to those antics.........well apart from sheep, and maybe cows (the nasel blowjob comes (no pun intended:D ) to mind, and well maybe cats, dogs, goats and horses...and I suppose camels and chickens. But definately not frogs, well maybe not....
