Some Dazzling New Reptilian Species Discovered in the Mekong Watershed In 2008

ALWAYS heartening to hear good news coming out of the world of conservation, what with the drum beating of imminent global destruction and its concommitant message of massive government intervention. Last year's discovery---as reported by the World Wildlife Fund---of 18 new species of reptiles (including the little leopard-spotted gecko above), one bird and several plants in Southeast Asia is just such news.

If you want to see more photos, take a look and be grateful for these newly discovered creatures. And for any good news that comes out of the cynical climate change MSM.
