<<But scientists were finding it was disrupting hormones in wildlife -- in some cases turning frogs into bizarre creatures bearing both male and female sex organs.>>

I recall the year of the weird frogs. Some speculation was that it was more sunlight that was causing it. I live in a county that probably uses as much atrazine as any county in the US and our frogs are fine.

Something odd though. We have two water gardens and a creek on our 5 acres. Normally we have several toads laying eggs in the water gardens plus 2-3 dozen frogs living in them. Last year not a toad or a frog. This year they are back to normal.
