Who is taking care of the 3 Lizard babies from "Threshold"?

I was hoping someone would bring up the topic of who is going to take care of the 3 lizard babies from 'Threshold' since Voyager took there parents away. LOL
There are no stupid questions - just stupid answers. ;)

So who is taking care of the Lizard babies?
Presumably they would have great difficulty surviving on their own.
This is an extremely good point.

The total disregard by Janeway & Tom for their offspring is rather disturbing.
They are simply never mentioned again.

Also you would have thought B'Elanna would have taken note of Tom's non parental instincts.

And indeed if they had been taken back to Voyager who would get custody?
Im guessing Janeway as the mother usualy does.

Presumably Tom would have visiting rights at the weekends;

B'Elanna: "So what will we do this weekend Tom? visit the Holodeck?"
Tom: "Oh sorry Ive got the Lizard kids honey and were going to bask on rocks to bring up our body temperature"

(Sorry I couldn't resist)
 
^ What a stupid question. Kidding! ;)

I never understood the reasoning for leaving them behind myself. I mean, couldn't they have been "reverted" to human form?
 
Based on what I've seen other people here say about "Threshhold" (and my own feelings about it), I'm going to guess they ended up being raised by the big head "god" dude from the end of Star Trek V. :lol:
 
Wouldn't the Voth have passed by them kids while tracking Voyager?

You'd think that a couple saurians like that wouldn't precisely think that lizard babies were monsters unworthy or love, that had to be abandoned to the wilds but then they ditched the kids too, that is if they did run across one another?

Tom seemed to show affection for that lizard baby from Paturation.

I guess it is different when it is other peoples children.
 
They were a highly evolved species, they didn't need parents to look after their young. When they grew up they built a spaceship and decided to track down their parents in order to see what they were up to. Unfortunately, on their way to Earth they went through a time-warp and ended up hundreds of millions of years in Earth's past. They ended up staying and they gave birth to all the dinosaur species who eventually evolved into humans. Full circle.

And before anybody points out that humans did not evolve from dinosaurs, A SINGLE HUMAN SPECIMEN CANNOT EVOLVE INTO A FRAKIN' LIZARD! :brickwall:

Quite.:)

And when they grew up?

Boy, I fell honored you posted this LOL!!, Where do I collect my award for the dumbest question asked about Voyager.

Seriously (well not really), Did janyway have 3 seperate pregnancies or was the 3 in a litter?

But its quite interisting also as to how many times Tom did it with Janeway.

Im sure it was quite a few.
Although only the one impregnation would have made it.
as they all hatched at the same time.

NOTE: Yes they are more amphibians than Lizards.
 
Well there was a girl in Greys Anatomy a couple years back who had two uteruses, just like a cow (or Alf) has several stomachs... So maybe Tom gave her multiple or separate pregnancies as his sperms flew all over the place trying to figure out what their genetic imperative was.

Godben. If Janeway did it with a Monkey in Resolutions, and the entire crew of both ships were raped by a glowing rock in the pilot, and Harry frenched a cow, why wouldn't the Paris triplets interbreed with the Voth population on Earth? Hybrids with lizard/lizard-human DNA... And if they jut did it with regular nonsentient dinosaurs since it's a choice between bestiality and incest, well, then that's probably how the Voth came about.

How do I get one of those trophies?

Ohh err missus!

Im not actually partial to knobs but I can do a job on a rug.
You know brushing and sweeping so its nice and neat for the next day.
 
Hang on, I thought as Voyager fans we all took an oath that Threshold never happened, and it was some sort of anomaly that made us all dream at that same time, that the episode even occured.

Come on, Lizard babies? It was all a baaaad dream. A baaad dream.

:)
 
Yeah, maybe, but one of two things happened...

Janeway nailed Paris, and that is awesome.

or...

Paris nailed Janeway and that is awesome.

In the finale... When miral dug her way out of Mommy, I wanted Janeway to say something like "one? one baby? is that all? Are you even trying?"
