I mean at this point that would mean finding new bugs and das really it

Well that and thinking of a fun name that doesn't accidentally turn said bug into an endangered collector's item because a bunch of weirdo nazis wamt da Hitler Beatle

Didn't a new frog drop like less than a year ago? And green anacondas actually come in two flavours now? And didn't we just find lactating amphibians??? Plus there's like a whole thing about oceans.

I mean, there are many biologists that spend a lot of time in the field. I know many who spend several months up to years in research stations for example. But hardly any of them try to find new species but rather try to understand the already described ones and their interactions better.

I misread "organisms" as "orgasms" the first time and was mildly confused.
