FROGS ARE BEING DEFORMED

GROWING MORE CORN FOR ETHANOL WILL ONLY MAKE THIS WORSE.........

Study: Farms Fuel Frog Deformities

Frog-deforming infections caused by tiny parasites are increasing because of North American farms' nutrient-rich watershed, a new study shows.
The excess nitrogen and phosphorus found in farm runoff causes more algae to grow, which increases snail populations that host microscopic parasites called trematodes, said Pieter Johnson, a water scientist at the University of Colorado in Boulder.
