'Jabba the Hut' Frog With No Lungs Found
April 10, 2008 (AP)
A frog has been found in a remote part of Indonesia that has no lungs and breathes through its skin, a discovery that researchers said Thursday could provide insight into what drives evolution in certain species.

Amber says: Can I have one? Please?! In a time when everyone is so worried about "global warming" and "climate change" and... well, the end of the world as we know it... It's nice to see that at least some of our smallest neighbors can overcome what may seem like a little problem to us- but is most likey a giant problem for them. If a little frog can figure out a better way to breath through evolution (Or whatever you want to believe...) then, it should give our gigantic human race something to spur them on. 100 degree weather? No problem, I'll just grow an air-conditioned skin that had moisture beads inset in the most crucial areas! :-)
