Eleven New Species Found
Sep 27th, 2007 by Ann
Considering how many species are being wiped out, it’s always good to hear that some news one are
popping up. Eleven new species were found in Vietnam. The list includes a snake, two butterflies, five orchids and three other plants. Ten other plans are being examined to check whether or not they are new species.
The Green Corridor, the remote region in which they all were found, is one of the few remianing lowland wet evergreen forests. The Green Corridor project is a four-year initiative between the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and Thua Thien Hue Provincial Forest Protection Department. The biodiversity of the area is phenomenal and is home to dozens of species that are already at risk.
The idea that nature is still able to create such amazing species is fairly phenomenal, to say the least.
