That is absolutely intriguing. To think that they're finding rare and unusual creatures in apparent abundance in a place like that is incredible. Nature continues to amaze me.

LOL... Well, I usually simply note anything that looks interesting on the Yahoo or Google news page... and sometimes I go looking at more specific categories, such as new science stories, etc.; aside from interest, the chief reason I post such things is because, this being a sff site, one never knows when something of this sort will spark a story idea or provide information for an idea already in progress, for the writers on the boards.....

Oi see, well I just enjoy them for the interest in new discoveries but that makes a lot of sense. I can see they would be useful for the writers &c.

Amazing! I wonder what they will find next?

Thanks for the article JD...
