The Barbados threadsnake, the world's smallest known snake, has been rediscovered after nearly two decades without a confirmed sighting. Measuring just 3-4 inches long and as thin as a strand of spaghetti, the snake was feared extinct by conservationists and scientists. Its rediscovery came after a dedicated search in Barbados, where researchers overturned hundreds of rocks before finding the elusive reptile. The find brings hope for the survival of other species considered 'lost to science' and highlights the importance of ongoing conservation efforts. Scientists are now working to better understand the snake's habitat and how to protect it from future threats.
