current event week 5: scientists discover amphibian species thought to be extinct

in the article scientists discover amphibian species thought to be extinct scientists found three thought to be extinct amphibians. the three are the cave slayfoot salamander, the mount nimba reed frog, and the omaniundu reed frog. the mount nimba frog was found in a swampy feild near ivory coast. the omaniundu was seen in a flooded forest near the congo river in the democratic republic. the salamander was found in a cave system from mexico. these are part of the lost frogs project (by robin moore)  for frogs thought to be extinct.

opinion:
my opinion on this article is that the lost frog project is smart. there are probably a lot of frogs (and other animals) that we may think are gone but are not. meaning we can try and save them. i wish the article gave more information  on the lost frogs project. i would like it better that way i would have more information. im happy that these frogs were found again it gives a sense of hope for our animals.
