I'm not sure this belongs here, but I found a better link with a slide show while looking for the fanged frog. The YouTube blurb has a little info on it too.<p><a href="http://www.backpacker.com/researchers_new_species_papua_new_guinea/blogs/daily_dirt/1283" rel="nofollow">http://www.backpacker.com/researchers_new_species_papua_new_...</a>

It is sad to think of all this diverse wildlife threatened by human logging. These animals that have never seen humans before don't stand a chance.

At some point, someone will import those giant rats into the <i>civilised world</i>. That'll be fun..
