This article talks about the numerous amount of new species found in the Asia's Mekong region in one year. This enormous region spread throughout China, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia. In just a years time 208 species have been discovered. Ranging from monkeys to lizards to frogs a wide variety of new animals have been discovered.I think the shear amount of discoveries is simply amazing. It really goes to show that we aren't even done exploring the land let alone the entire planet. Hopefully scientist are able to continue to go to the remote places of the world in search of more species that have yet to been discovered.
