The Pinta Island tortoise is the rarest animal in the world. There is ONLY ONE LEFT on Earth. His name is Lonesome George.

Honestly, who the hell wouldn’t want to hug the crap out of that tortoise?

New species of crabs have been found off of an island in the Phillippines, with beautiful, colorful shells. They found a whole bunch of other cool species too, read about it here!
They’re also super tiny- only an inch to two inches long. Cute little gem-like crustaceans, get me to the Phillipines so I can find some of these guys to play with!

New species discovered in Papua New Guinea’s Manus Island!
It’s called the Bumblebee Gecko because of the awesome bumblebee-like stripes on its hot lil gecko bod. Apparently the locals on the island had known about these dudes for like, ever, but had never showed them to scientists. Cool Beans!
