  • Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
    DUKAS_44028691_EXC
    Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs
    Epic quest to find the world's forgotten frogs

    Four years ago, conservationist and photographer Robin Moore embarked on the largest global quest for species lost to science. Accompanied by over 120 scientists in 21 countries, he went in search of frogs and salamanders last seen between 15 and 160 years ago.

    The four-year quest has produced some surprising rediscoveries, including the Ventriloqual Frog from Haiti, capable of throwing its voice, and the Borneo Rainbow Toad, unseen in 87 years, and remarkable new species such as the "Monty Burns Toad" from Colombia which bears a striking similarity with the nefarious villain from the Simpsons.

    Moore's fascinating new book, In Search of Lost Frogs, tells the story of the quest - its highs and lows, failures and discoveries, and the campaign's ongoing work - in a 70,000 work narrative wrapped around over 400 striking photographs.

    As we lament the rampant loss of species in the midst of the sixth mass extinction - with amphibians at the forefront as the most threatened vertebrate group - Moore believes that hope is as important as despair in motivating people to care. "As conservationists we often get so caught up in communicating what it is that we are losing that we forget to instill a sense of hope," Moore says. "We need to revel in the weird and the wonderful, the maligned and the forgotten, for our world is a richer more wondrous place for them. Stories and images of discovery and rediscovery can help us to reconnect with our inner explorer - they can make us feel part of a bigger, wilder world. Rekindling a connection with the world beyond our concrete boxes is the key to caring about the way we are treating our natural world."

    Fire Destroys Richard Branson's Luxury Necker Island Home
    Kate Winslet was amongst a host of VIP guests who had to flee Sir Richard Branson's luxury Necker Island home after it went up in flames.

    The Hollywood star and her children were staying in the Great House on the Virgin tycoon's GBP 60million Caribbean island when it was struck by lightning.

    The incident came as the area was battered by Hurricane Irene and it sparked a fire that quickly got out of control.

    The 20 people in residence were forced to flee in their pyjamas in the early hours of the morning.

    According to Branson Winslet acted like a true Hollywood heroine when she helped to carry his 90-year-old mother Eve to safety.

    Also staying in the house at the time was Branson's daughter Holly, who had been due to get married at the venue later in the year.

    Meanwhile, Branson, his wife and their son were in residence at another property around 100 yards away.

    The Great House was completely destroyed in the blaze but no one was injured.

    Branson brought Necker Island for GBP 180,000 in 1979, building the Balinese-style Great House in 1982.

    He regularly loans out the island to his famous friends and the likes of Princess Diana, Mariah Carey, Oprah Winfrey and Janet Jackson have stayed there in the past.
