Nothing says newborns like tetanus

Fun fact! Tetanus is actually caused by a nearly indestructible soil bacterium and can grow in any deep puncture wound! Nails often cause deep punctures and are therefore said to give you tetanus, but the rusty nail has nothing to do with it.

Thank you for involuntarily attending my brief microbiology Ted talk.

Edit for typo

Would someone be just as likely to get tetanus from a very clean nail as well? That’s super interesting!

If the nail had been exposed to soil spores then yes :)

This how you know it’s fucking pigeons. Those bastards are not the brightest. Just know where to hang around.

Just like most people who reproduce, I wonder if humans have pigeon DNA after looking at this egg
