In your post #108 you said, “This Egyptian mummy had to wait a few thousand years for his diagnosis.”

A recent study by University of Manchester scientists has strongly suggested that ... cancer is a modern, man-made disease caused by environmental factors such as pollution and diet.

In the extensive study conducted at the University’s KNH Centre for Biomedical Egyptology, scientists examined hundreds of mummies and found ... no signs of cancer—except for one isolated case.

Professor Michael Zimmerman said: “In an ancient society lacking surgical intervention, evidence of cancer should remain in all cases.” Therefore, the virtual absence of tumors and malignancies in mummies must necessarily be interpreted as evidence that cancer was indeed rare in ancient times.

And cancer in wild animals far from EVIL humans and their EVIL toxins?

What do you think caused the cancer in that one mummy?

Telling me some animals do not get cancer is like saying there is a perpetual motion machine. Physics precludes it.
