Missing LocationDescription
Of anything I ever wished to see since I was a child, it was a glass frog. I'm ecstatic that I was able to find these two individuals, and one of them was guarding 2 clutches of eggs! I'm still in awe...
Found not in Main Ridge Forest Reserve.

Saola (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis)Observer
surfbirderDescription
The Saola was only discovered to science in 1992. There are no Saola in captivity. No Saola have been seen by scientists in the wild. A few records on camera trap exist. In 2004, there were still reports of Saola deep in the Truong Son mountains. This individual was confiscated from hunters in A'Luoi district, in the western reaches of the province. The other pictures are from interviews with Ka Tu ethnic hunters in A'Luoi and A'Vuong districts (Minh Hoang). The last photo is James with rangers from Hue Forest Department examining Saola tracks in A'Luoi - and identifzing schistamoglottis plants, reportedly favoured food for the saola.
In 2013, its status is critical. See what is happening on http://www.savethesaola.org/
