Amazon rainforest hided 1.220 unknown species by Zivka Deleva

In a ten year period, in the fabulous Amazon rainforest have been discovered more than thousands of new species. A big study that was done in the picturesque area said that almost every third day was a festival for the researchers - every third day they would have discovered a type of a living being, said the environment group WWF. They found a huge four-meter anaconda, giant catfish that can eat a monkey, dart frogs etc. are only few of the exactly 1,220 animals and plants, as well. The research began in 1999 and was done till last year, but the results were well systemized, so they came to the public few days ago. The spectacular news was announced at a United Nations ! summit that is organized in Japan, where the main topics is the need of people to do anything possible to stop the mass extinction of species all over the world. The report about Amazon situation is giving hope to the mankind that everything is not lost, but that we shouldn't sleep still, until we don't protect the Amazon region better. "This incredible region is under pressure because of the human presence. The landscape is being very quickly transformed" - says Francisco Ruiz, head of WWF's Living Amazon Initiative. The biggest exterminators of the living kinds in the Amazon rainforest are without doubt the cattle farming and the palm oil plantations that made almost 20 percent of Amazon to be destroyed in the last 50 years. And that is weight too much. The joy of finding the new species will be pretty short if we don't do something more to fight the destroyers. Now it's time for the international organizations and foreign governments to show how much they care about ! the environment.
