New studies in the Greater Mekong region of Southeast Asia – an area comprised of Cambodia, China, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam – have revealed several new species of animals. Included in the discoveries is the Ammanite striped rabbit, Nesolagus timminsi, which makes its home along the Mekong River in Laos and Vietnam.
Another species of striped rabbit lives in Sumatra.

This striped rabbit is so striking. I find it amazing that with species going extinct that new species are being found.
