The Barbados threadsnake, the world's smallest-known snake species, has been rediscovered in Barbados after nearly two decades without a confirmed sighting. Scientists feared the tiny reptile, which can fit on a coin, had gone extinct before it was found under rocks during a recent survey. The rediscovery is significant for conservation efforts, as it highlights the importance of continued fieldwork even for elusive species. The snake's reappearance offers hope for other 'lost' species and emphasizes the need to protect its fragile habitat. This find underscores the ongoing challenges and surprises in biodiversity research.
