Tail Tales

My son came up to me the other day and in all seriousness asked if he was born with a tail! After regaining my composure, I asked him why he would even ask something like that. He had been reading the Guiness Book of World Records and found an entry about a human baby born with a tail. The article went on to say that these days when a baby is born with a tail, it is surgically removed at the hospital. Hence his question. Was he born with a tail? I assured him that he was not.
