1,000+ New Species Discovered In Greater Mekong

More than 1,000 new animal species have been discovered in the Greater Mekong since 1997. Some of those new species to join our knowledge database include the world’s second known striped rabbit species, a huntsman spider that measures as big as a plate, and a hot pink millipede that excretes cyanide through it’s body. These are coming from a report made public by the World Wildlife Federation (WWF).
