Raccoon Feces + Human Ingestion = Uh-Oh!


If you're jonesing for a steaming, hot pile of feces to eat or play in, you may want to stay away from raccoon feces... unless you want to end up like these two from Brooklyn, New York.

An infant must have found the raccoon feces and ate some of it, causing sudden seizures and spinal problems and ultimately resulting in brain damage. A teenager came into contact with the raccoon feces and touched his eye, leaving him blind in that feces-covered eye.

This feces, however, is not your average, run of the colon feces. This feces is infected. Worms lay eggs in the feces and the eggs hatch after being ingested. Raccoon Roundworm is its name. Spinal tapping babies is its game. No, that's not funny.

Apparently touching animal shit, and eating it, is more common than we thought it would be.

U.K. University, You Are Caught Brown Handed


What would do you if you were a janitor and came across a 77 lb bag of feces? Well, regardless of what you would have done, the cleaners at Leeds Univershitty found that bag and threw it away. After all, they are janitors, it is their job to rid the classroom of filth. But when Daniel Bennett came in to the room only to find his prized bag had been removed, shit hit the fan.

Daniel Bennett, a Ph.D. student, was studying the rare butaan lizard and its dung for his doctoral research. When the university offered him a mere $750 compensation, Bennett declined the offer and in turn told them that they will be meeting in court.

Ouch. There is a lot to be said about this sort of ordeal. But the one thing HNN wants to know is: did everyone instantly vomit the second they came into the room? Just thinking about 77 lbs of toilet food makes my eyes water. Bless the janitors who stumbled upon it, and thank God no one passed out from the fumes.
