Exploding Toad News

This story just gets more bizarre. In case you hadn't heard, toads in Germany and Denmark have been exploding, baffling onlookers and making a disgusting mess. Is the phenomenon being caused by polluted water? A virus? Is it mass toad suicide, driven by overpopulation pressures. No one really knows yet, but a scientist has just come out with a new theory: Crows. Crows--maybe--have learned how to peck out a toad's tasty liver, leaving the victim to die an agonizing and explosive death.
