This one inervates vocal tract, but instead going straight to larynx, it loops around so-called ductus arteriosus near heart, forming unnecessary long nerve, which is best demonstrated on giraffes, where this oddity means the nerve is several metres longer than easy straight alternative! And BTW why the hell giraffes have same number of neck vertebrae as all other vertebrates have, if we assume that all organisms were created?

And now, they can't even be bred and half to be grown from cuttings instead. So should I carry pineapples with me when I go to events that I know evangelical Christians will attending and passing out those little booklets?
