News that a girl in Rensselaer County (that's upstate, city folks) has found a frog with no eyes has people freaking out some. Besides being creepy, though initial examinations lead wildlife experts to believe that the frog's eyeless nature is developmental rather pollution-related, the fact that another little girl found a two headed turtle in the county a few months ago makes people scream "What the hell is happening to our bucolic town?"
Gothamist's favorite animal mutated by pollution might be Blinky from the Simpsons. But the most searing TV Gothamist has seen about the ill effects of solution is the Diff'rent Strokes episode where Kimberly's hair turns green from collecting rain water in an copper bowl to wash her hair.
