Of course. Only a scrotum frog could live in TiticacaLake Titicaca's endangered 'scrotum frog' could be on its last legs.
Lake Titicaca's 'scrotum frog' also cases much snickering laughter among teenage boys.

Was that the lake that Erich von Däniken was using for Ancient Aliens theory? I am pulling this from my childhood memory, but 'Titicaca' was supposed to mean 'jaguar' or some kind of wild cat and the shape of the lake resembles it only when seen from very very high above.... so how did they know how to name it few thousand years ago??
Neither the protohistoric nor prehistoric name for Lake Titicaca is known. Given the various Native American groups that occupied the Lake Titicaca region, it likely lacked a single, commonly accepted name in prehistoric times and at the time the Spaniards arrived.
The terms titi and caca can be translated in multiple ways. In Aymara, titi can be translated as either puma, lead, or a heavy metal. The word caca (kaka) can be translated as white or gray hairs of the head and the term k’ak’a can be translated as either crack or fissure, or alternatively, comb of a bird. According to Weston La Barre, the Aymara considered in 1948 that the proper name of the lake is titiq’aq’a,which means gray, discolored, lead-colored puma. This phrase refers to the sacred carved rock found on the Isla del Sol. In addition to names including the term titi and/or caca, Lake Titicaca was also known as Chuquivitu in the 16th century. This name can be loosely translated as lance point. This name survives in modern usage in which the large lake is occasionally referred to as Lago Chucuito. ...
Stanish argues that the logical explanation for the origin of the name Titicaca is a corruption of the term thakhsi cala, which is the 15th- to 16th-century name of the sacred rock on the Isla del Sol. Given the lack of a common name for Lake Titicaca in the 16th century, the Spaniards are thought to have used the name of the site of the most important indigenous shrine in the region, thakhsi cala on the Isla del Sol, as the name for the lake. In time and with usage, this name developed into Titicaca.
'Titicaca' is a name of probably bastardized origin that wasn't applied to the lake until after the Spanish conquest.

Just wanted to let you all know: the comedian, Paula Poundstone, has said her ideal alternative to cremation would be getting eaten by cats.
Full marks to Lidl, more specifically, the individual who made this happen .. I love it ..New grocery store offers glass windows in the floor to view of the 11th century house that is beneath it, provide easy access to ghosts who just need a bottle of milk.
Next to this post, I thought I'd add that it appears that this bloke is 'half-peeled' anyway!
