Dont you believe that there are still many udiscovered animal species out there? The world's smallest snake, averaging just 10cm (4 inches) and as thin as a spaghetti noodle, has been discovered on the Caribbean island of Barbados.

That's so tiny and thin based on the measurements given. Well, I believe that there are more species of its kind somewhere. I have seen a weird specie on the web before and it's the first time for scientists and experts to see that kind of monster-like figure. They're still more out there undiscovered.

I believe there are many more species out there that scientists have not discovered yet. There was a huge shark they just seen the other day and it was as big as a submarine. I bet there are many more wildlife that has not been discovered yet too. I hate snakes. I don't care how big they are. I am still scared of them.

Yes, I believe it. The world is so huge and there are many things unknown. Especially human beings know a few from the ocean. There must be so unknown creatures in the ocean or jungles. I love China

I am quite sure there are more things we have yet to discovere. Remember with all the pollutants who knows what damage or amount of contamination we are putting into the environment. The sad part is we keep on doing it. SOme of these discoveries are probably species of animals that have been subjected to changes in environment, weather, etc. I firmly believe we havent even begun to discover all that has been given to us. We also dont even realize the amount of damage we have done by being careless. I only hope somebody discovers the secret of saving us from ourselves. dl
