Butterfly Goodeid :- This fish was supposedly declared “EXTINCT” until 1996.
They were discovered in a PUBLIC Swimming pool at TEUCHITLAN in Western Mexico. The pool was a fresh water pool fed by a spring which runs in the Teuchitlan River.
Its habitat is that Single fresh water pool and hopefully they would be bred and re-introduced to natural habitat.

Wonder why it’s known as butterfly? Also, how can they declare something as extinct when no one can go across the length and breadth of the world to verify??

I heard today that Cambodian ocean floors have found relics of ancient tortoise. I wonder how many other ‘extinct’ species are flourishing in some secret place …I sure hope so!

Still its believed that hundreds or thousands of species are either undiscovered or are called extinct because due to human intervention they have changed their habitat and we have no idea where they are now 🙂
