    Recently in the remote rain forests of Tanzania, a major herpetological breakthrough was discovered. As a group of field Biologists continued their studies they came across a beautiful and remarkable snake, Antheris Matildae (Matildas Horned Viper). What is remarkable about this species is it evolved just about 2.2 million years ago from Atheris Ceratophora (Usambara bush viper), and is just now being discovered. Antheris Matildae is restricted to a very small area of just under 100 square miles. Although this much unintended information has been released they are not saying where this is in the forest. Due to the fact this species is so endangered, scientists took eleven snakes captive holding five females, four males, and two juveniles.…

    They are able to secrete mucus from their skin that can cause irritation to the eyes, nose, mouth and even the genitals and any other mucus membranes. The mucus can also cause allergy-like symptoms and cause someone’s asthma to be triggered. Also, if a child gets ahold of one and puts it in their mouth, the secretion of the tree frog can possibly kill the child from the sicknesses they could contract. This is a common happening because there are so many of these frogs that when children see them, they like to try catching and playing with them, which sometimes gets the children…

    Frogs and other amphibians are important for several reasons. One reason is that they are an integral part of the food chain, as they serve as both predator and prey (What Do Frogs). Without them, the ecosystems they live in would suffer. For example, frogs feed on pests, such as mice or insects, which infest human homes and consume crops. Without frogs and toads to feed on them, the populations of such pests would grow rapidly. Many of their prey even spread diseases, like mosquitos which spread malaria, so frogs play a direct role in keeping humans healthy. Tadpoles, juvenile frogs and toads, clean waterways by feeding on algae, which cuts down on costs that would otherwise be needed for water filtration (Why We Must). Additionally, frogs also serve as prey for a variety of organisms, from predatory birds, fish, and snakes, to larger insects, other frogs, humans, and more. If frogs die out, all of their predators would have to cope with a lack of food sources as well (What Do Frogs). Furthermore, because amphibians live in both water and land, they play key roles in transferring nutrients between the two. Without them, all organisms in their environments would suffer. Food webs such as this are simply too interconnected for the loss of one creature not to affect the rest, especially not creatures as vital as amphibians (Amphibian…

    Based on the results of the BLAST for the first unknown species only the first hit Perodicticus potto located in the rain forests in Africa with a pairwise identity of 100% has a high enough percentage indicative of the same species. It is therefore likely that this species belongs to an already known species and is not a new founded one. For the second unknown species the results indicate that all of the results including the top hit Cercopithecus pogonias nigripe of Western Central Africa had pairwise percentages of around 92% indicating it likely a closely related species and not the same species. The third unknown species BLAST results indicated from the first hit Pan troglodytes troglodytes of Central Africa and all the subsequent results were 100-99.80% indicating a very high likelihood of them being the same species.…
