These are NOT new Species but new kinds within a species. A bat is a bat is a bat. A slug is a slug is a slug, an Octopus, well you get it...

Thread should be renamed, misleading at best!


Wow you must be a biologist! No, a 'bat' or a 'slug' is not a species.

Almost forgot, awesome thread OP - Stars and Flags. Nature is mind-blowingly beautiful

I can't wait for us to explore the Oceans more. They say we have so far only discovered around 20% of the species in the Ocean.

The Earth is truly MASSIVE

This is all very fascinating we are still discovering new land species all the time!

Didn't "Westerners" hunt buffalo to near extinction? Didn't Europeans to the same to whales? Everyone has a role to play in the conservation of wildlife, singling out a single group of people is unfair and biased.

Your comments didn't come across as racist...they are racist!

Don't apologize for the racist that you are, be proud to be a fool. Besides what's wrong with a little (Indian accent) Monkey brain? Indiana Jones fans know the reference.

Yeah, that's about as racist as it gets. Please re-do your post. You have 4 hours to edit your post, after that they won't let you, which I don't get because I would like to edit my original post but I can't

Amazing how little we know about the world and who we share it with.

OK, I got one, it is called a "Mangave". Most people have heard of an Agave before, a type of cactus-like succulent that grows a bloom spike after many years and then dies, leaving "pups" to grow in place of itself. The most infamous would be the Giant Blue Agave which produces Tequila!

With the Mangave, it is suspected to be a crossing of two different plant species and it has even been considered as an actual tetraploid mutation (meaning it is within a species and it spontaneously mutated). At any rate it is New and it has never existed before now.



The interesting thing about this Mangave versus other Agaves is that it can tolerate a very low temp of 9 degrees and it does not die after blooming, yet delivers "pups" just the same. It can reach 5 ft tall and 5 ft in diameter. It is aptly named Mucho Mocha.

I was fortunate to obtain three "pups" and I have a great planting bed set up for them in the future!

I'm sorry if this comes across as racist but those stupid gooks have, once again, destroyed another species and it's personal research for food. When will they, and the rest of the world, learn that they are clearly primitive humans, regardless of their technological advances? The Sneezing Snub-Nosed Monkey needs to be studied and researched on a WESTERN basis. Not on the stupid asian basis where they eat anything the see. When will society learn? Gooks are the aids of the earth. Sorry. Just my opinion.


Wow really? You call yourself a doctor and sound this ignorant?

Wow amazing pictures. The song was quite suiting as well. Reading about that snub nosed monkey made me very sad.

Intense.

It makes me stop for a second and imagine that these creatures are aliens on another planet.

Also, if you cannot communicate and get along with the animals on our planet, how can we expect to one day communicate with extraterrestials?

Thank you for this thread. Gave me a lot to think about.

To think all these critters are on our planet... very cool.

Oh man, I didn't listen to the Requiem for a Dream music. Instead, I looked at these photos while listening to "Down By the River" by Neil Young. It was perfect.
