Is this possibly on topic for biotech investors? Toad vomiting. "Anurans have strong emetic reflexes. Toxic material in the stomach provokes vomiting, and when anurans vomit, they not only regurgitate stomach contents but also the stomach itself! Because the anuran stomach is asymmetric -- with a shorter mesentery on the right than the left side -- the stomach is tethered to that side. Consequently, the prolapsed stomach always hangs out the right side of the mouth." (Naitoh, T., and R. Wassersug. 1996. Why are toads right-handed? Nature 380: 30-31)
