Frogotten Genders

"Endocrine disruptor or flying trash compactor?"
Our intrepid reporter cooks up a plate of corn hash and heads to the swamp to ask Triball, "What does this steaming plate of food have to do with mutant frogs?" A lot, it seems, with evidence indicating the common weed killer atrazine -- used on corn fields -- creates freaky changes in male frogs. Exhibit A: eggs in testes. You read that right. Now see it.

These vids should be used in schools! It's never tooo young to bring this info to kids .. the 'system' tries hard enough to hide info regarding ourselves & the environmental exposures to may Endocrine Distruptors .. this is one of many! It is possible, that one day, no reproduction in any species will be possible if these pollutions & hormonal exposures aren't stopped! Geez, even eostrogen levels are raised by waste water containing hormones from the female 'pill'!!
