All I can say is wow!!! Just thought I'd change the subject from rioting cartoon critiques and bring in some great news.:2thumbsup:
What I found interesting was the discovery of a egg laying mammal, much like the plattypuss. I cannot wait for the pctures to come out. :wall:
Does anyone have any other articles about this find?:help:
great article. new species, etc. maybe they'll find a few old ones, too

Let's take some of them for research projects, and ship the rest to the zoos and terrariums of the West
Awesome. The discoveries have just started, so more unique species may appear with time.

Just wait till rattus rattus gets there. They'll show diversity what happens when faced with one of evolution's masterpieces :surrender:

Exxon is sponsoring the next team of ornithologists. They want to look for the rare oily throated tar-faced warbler, a species known to inhabit old growth jungles having crude oil below.
More true then you know.
I've worked on the equator in Borneo's jungles and in the mountain jungles of Sumatra... looking for gold.
Has it occurred to anyone that these scientists might be bringing in microbes that are lethal to these animals? :oops: :help:

In my pharmocology short block (50 minute class, all others are 1.5 hours, usually a joke) we talked about that a bit. If the scientists know what they're doing they should have looked into that already, but that is certainly a great concern.Quote:
