What came first - the gecko or the egg

Doctor finds whole, tiny gecko inside egg.

Australian scientists are trying to crack the mystery of how a tiny lizard found its way inside a chicken’s egg.

 

The bizarre discovery was made by a doctor in Darwin as he made dinner earlier this week.

....

 

The lizard could not have entered the egg after it was cracked open because it was embedded between the interior of the shell and the egg’s membrane, he said.

 

......

Dr Beaumont believes the lizard climbed into the chicken’s bottom, perhaps to feed on an embryo, before dying and becoming cocooned in the developing egg

 

Didn't someone post a few weeks ago about finding a fossil that indicated something (a croc I think) had crawled up a dinosaur's nether section. Life must be rough without arms and hands to grab creatures trying to invade your hind quarters.
