Scientists have rediscovered the Barbados threadsnake, the world's smallest-known snake, after it had been missing from scientific observation for nearly two decades. The tiny reptile, which can fit comfortably on a coin and measures about four inches long, was last seen in 2006 and was feared extinct. Its rediscovery in Barbados in March 2025 has sparked relief and excitement among conservationists and researchers. The snake was found under rocks in the Scotland District of St. Andrew, Barbados, after an extensive search. This finding highlights the importance of ongoing fieldwork and conservation efforts for species believed to be lost.
