How does an impaction kill?

CokeOfMan Jun 15, 2004 03:27 PM

I saw the previous thread about the Budgets frog that swallowed stones and it hit me, that I didn't really know how impaction kills.
Is it that they can't eat and starve or something? What happens?

Frogs can't defecate when they become impacted. Basically, all the material just stops up the frog's system, or at leas that it what I surmise.

And the sign says "No long hair freaky people need not apply." So I put my hair under my hat and I went in to ask him why. He said you look like a fine outstanding young man I think you'll do. So I took off my hat I said "Imagine that Huh Me working for you."-Tesla
