oh and that alligator baby thing was rather interesting.. thought distressing. 1 in 300 000 means that if everyone had children right now, there would be 10, 000 of these alligator babies! imagine if one grew longer than 2.5 years.. like to an adult, and had to care for their scale-skin and apply vaseline constantly, and inject nutrients and stuff. just goes to show how lucky healthy humans are, and how amazing the birth process is that we can have so many babies that DONT go wrong..
i remember watching that like two years ago...it scared the CRAP out of me...it was late at night, thunderstorming, all the lights were off...yikes.
