LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Authorities said on Monday that a pair of lungs had been found on a Los Angeles-area sidewalk and that coroner's investigators were trying to determine if they were from a human or an animal.
The organs were found by an unidentified person on Sunday night in an area just outside the city limits, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Sergeant Pauline Panis said.
"It's at the coroner's office right now and they are trying to ascertain if it's human or animal," she said. A coroner's spokesman could not immediately be reached for comment.
Panis said it was the first time she was aware of a pair of lungs being recovered from the streets of Los Angeles.
"It's getting weirder," she said.

Probably pig's lungs from a butcher's operation that got "mislaid".

Well, you've heard the expression "coughing your lungs up". Maybe it finally happened.

Although it may look like a forum, this site is actually a crowd-sourced science project modelling the slow but inexorable heat death of the universe.

The person who found them...was s/he a victim of identity theft? I hope he/she gets it back soon...

Why would someone steal an entire person but leave the lungs?

You have to do DNA tests to tell human lungs from pig lungs. My money's on the pig.

The zombies that way always leave the lungs. There's no point risking cancer.

My money is on med students.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Our Southern zombies quite like a bit of smoked meat, it's a cultural thing.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Won Lung Ho is the obvious suspect here.
