New Giant Rat Discovered in Extinct Volcano Cryptomundo

An intrepid film crew from the United Kingdom's BBC is believed to have documented 40 new species, including the giant rat and a frog with fangs, while filming the documentary "Lost Land of the Volcano" which premieres tonight. There's more on the expedition and tonight's program in the article Lost World of Fanged Frogs and Giant Rats Discovered, including a linked slide show. There are more animal discoveries at Cryptomundo today in Rhino Feces-Eating Turtle Rediscovered. There's also an update on a recent large cat flap in Fayette Feline Followup and a large bird flap in Thunderbird Defeathered.
