News - The Pinocchio frog and the world's smallest wallaby discovered in mountains

Post  Safari Maiden on Tue May 18, 2010 9:57 am

"The world's smallest wallaby and a frog with a Pinocchio-like nose have been discovered in a remote mountain 'lost world'.

The remarkable array of new species - which also include a bat that feeds on jungle nectar, a 'gargoyle-like gecko' with yellow eyes, and a giant woolly rat - were discovered in Indonesia's Foja mountains.

The creatures were identified during a four-week survey of the rainforest wilderness by Conservation International."

Fabulous pictures on this article.! Ive said it before and I'll say it again, there are some many things yet to discover.
