An Incredible "Lost World" Found!

Fanged Frogs, Tiny bear-like creatures, giant monitors and possibly the world's largest rat and MUCH more all have been found in total isolation, evolving for 200,000 years in a volanic crator.

Wow, that was an amazing caterpillar. Thanks for the share.

Just goes to show how much we have yet to discover. I like the rat, and the birds of paradise they found.

There was also something about filmmakers, so keep an eye out for the documentary!:D

awesome

Awesome discovery. Just goes to show you how much beautiful wildlife is still out there.

Don't like to be the pooper but as I looked at those pics in aw,...I couldn't help but wonder. How long before people muck it up.

Yeah,..I said it, you read it right. With poaching and diseases it may only be a matter of time unfortunately. One or the other if not both. Finding a lost civilization or an Eco system isn't always a good thing :confuzd:.
