1000+ New Species

I read an article today (It may still be here.) that told how scientists have discovered over 1000 new species of critters in the Mekong area over the past decade.

This is my favorite quote from the article: "Not all species were found hiding in remote jungles -- the Laotian rock rat, which the study said was thought to be extinct about 11 million years ago, was first encountered by scientists in a local food market in 2005, it said."

Not only does that border on the hilarious, but it also raises all kinds of questions about endangered species and what we're supposedly doing wrong relative to creation. Just think about it for a few minutes. The longer you think, the more questions you'll have.
