Kermit the fictional frog from Muppets has 12 new living friends thriving in the jungles of the Western Ghats. While amphibian croaks are fading away all over the world, this piece of good news should be celebrated with great gusto. As the world is scampering around to save the planet from environmental doom, it feels great that there are a few ‘micro safe havens’ for such amphibians. How big is the discovery? Well, to me, it is as big as discovering a new species of tiger!
