Llama Army

News broke last week that our furry friends the llamas naturally produce an antibody which can detect and inhibit botulinum neurotoxins that may well prove to be a useful tool in the ongoing “War on Terror”. We were delighted to hear that our greatest hopes lie in the noble llama, largely because we thought it would be a great excuse for some llama pictures.

“Come on, Popbitch! You can’t have a story about “botulinum neurotoxins” in a celebrity-gossip newsletter without pointing out to those “not up to speed on modern proteinology”, as you put it, that botulinum neurotoxin is what they inject into your face during a Botox treatment (hence the name). People should be made to know that it’s the most deadly substance known to man that irons out those creases…

Otherwise, keep up the good work!”
