Madagascar Scientists Discover New Species Of Chameleon Brookesia Nana The World's Smallest Reptile


Antananarivo: The
 earth is full of many mysteries and such creatures. Even after all these years, we know very little. The world's smallest reptile has been found in the northern part of the African country of Madagascar. Researchers have discovered this new species of Kachinda. Which is exactly the size of a sunflower seed. The name of this new Kachinda is Broccia nana. Which can also be easily held on the finger.

Hunting during the day and resting at night
This tick is small in appearance but its tongue is as long as other ticks and it is used for hunting. Scientists believe that this tick eats ant-mancoda as well as other small creatures with its tongue on rotten leaves. Researchers say the ticks hunt in the forests of Madagascar during the day and rest on the grass at night.



Crisis
researchers on the life of Kachinda say that so far not much is known about this reptile as scientists have found only two such Kachinda so far. In which there is one male and one female. Scientists have not yet been able to determine whether this tick is an adult. His other companions are also smaller or larger than him. The only thing researchers can say perfectly is that this chameleon will soon be on the endangered species list.

Lives in mountain forests Brocasia
Brocasia is found in small mountain forests. Where his abode is in great danger. Many people in the area are fighting poverty and destroying rainforests because they can be farmed. Deforestation in Madagascar has affected 94% of the area, according to NASA figures.
