Just think, if they were released, I could have posted 196 other new species photographs of the other newly found frogs. How can we cry today for one Bigfoot species not discovered yet when news of 200 new amphibians comes our way?

How do you wrap your mind around stumbling across 200 new species in Madagascar?

Congratulations to the scientists at the Spanish Scientific Research Council.

Thank you
