In this critical age of extinctions, known to scientists as the 5th extinction period, it is wonderful to discover a new species. Thank you, Cher.

Cnemaspis... lizard species is moving from the forest into human habitation areas because the forests are being cut... this new species needs to be protected! If India really cared so much about endangered species the Tigers would be protected!!!!!!!
Thank you Cher
