New Species of 2010


There are many organisms in the world yet to be discovered. Many of them live in the rugged terrain of the dwindling rain forests in South American. Most of the new species are endangered because their home is being destroyed. All of the new species either belong to the reptile or amphibian family. An example of a new species is the Glass Frog in South America. There is no pigmentation produced by its skin, so all of its organs are visible, including its beating heart.
