RE: The Only Animal That Doesn't Need Oxygen!

You've done it again--sent me scurrying to read more. First of all, this is a disgusting organism (I know, that's not a very scientific observation). Then, the fact that it might have been a cancer cell that separated and became independent of the parent...wow. Except, it got me thinking about how we all got here. As you say, give evolution enough time and strange things happen. Early earth had no oxygen--organisms breathed something else, maybe arsenic. Henneguya zschokkei is just another stage in an unfolding drama...

Thanks for a great read (yours and the ones you sent me to 😄)
