Who wouldn’t love them? Running around, being playful and always wanting your love. These are our fur friends who came and give students a break from their books and instead play with them! When the publicity of this workshop was released, we could not meet the sign-ups! We are truly sorry about it and we will bring them back with more sessions in the next semester! Look out for it at this space again!
“We have barely scratched the surface of Timor-Leste’s biodiversity. New discoveries can have profound impacts on conservation and policy-making.”
In August 2022, we led an expedition to Timor-Leste in collaboration with Conservation International and the government of Timor-Leste. The Museum’s herpetologist, Dr CHAN Kin Onn, discovered a new species of bent-toed gecko which was named Cyrtodactylus santana, in reference to the Nino Konis Santana National Park, in which the gecko was discovered.
