The Barbados threadsnake, considered the world's smallest snake and feared extinct, has been rediscovered after nearly two decades without a confirmed sighting. Measuring just 10 centimeters long and as thin as a strand of spaghetti, this elusive species was found under rocks in Barbados. Conservationists had worried that habitat loss had wiped out the snake, but its recent discovery offers hope for its survival. The find highlights the importance of ongoing conservation efforts and the potential for other 'lost' species to be found. Scientists are now working to learn more about the snake's population and habitat needs to ensure its continued existence.
