This is one of the few discoveries that bring hope to conservation.. the fact that so much land hasn’t been surveyed really tells us that we still have time to help life around us ❤

Thank you for including them!

Another species to consider for a future episode of rediscovered species is the Harlequin Toad (Atelopus Varius), or any of the other Atelopus species that have been rediscovered over the past few years.

Very exciting news from Finland! One of our native fish that we thought went extinct back in 1960 was just rediscovered! The catfish, although never thought to be prominent species in our lakes, was rediscovered in this week in Kotka. Scientists think this might be one off thing, maybe it wondered over here from Karjala or from nearby fisheries, but this means the catfish can live in our lakes. I know this doesn't break records like the coelacanth, but I think it's neat to have some wildlife news from my country. Before you ask what happened to the catfish, it was transported to the local public aquariums, where it's hold for quarantine for few weeks until its gonna be publicly available to view. Said aquarium holds every native fish species to the Finnish waters. I know locally extinct species should be returned to the wild, but scientists don't know if there's local population of catfish in Finland, they decided it's better for it to teach people of its past and present than disappear into the murky waters of Finland, maybe not to be seen ever again.

Your voice is so pleasant- hearing your laugh at the end was doubly so.

Thank you for including botanical specimens as well! It's "all about nature" after all . That Chisos Oak is fascinating

3:05 Looks a bit CGI, props to the guy who made that because that is really convincing.

The Island Marble Butterfly is so beautiful. A white and green color combination is so rare to see on animals. I think I might have a new favorite butterfly :-)

I'm an Ecologist in Melbourne and do a lot of work monitoring and doing surveys for the Victorian Grassland Earless Dragon. Nobody has really heard of it here outside of some news articles so it is so wild to see someone from outside Australia, let alone Melbourne, talk about our little survivor. Great work bringing attention to it!
