News and Discoveries: Deep sea life-forms

With all these discoveries I am making in regard to wildlife,the environment,and it's destruction I was beginning to get a little depressed. I needed to do something to get out of that funk and back to a more pleasant outlook. With that in mind I set out to do some research with the specific wish to find something positive on the wildlife news front, something that didn't involve the death or near extinction of a species,and here is what I found so far.

The discovery of a vegetarian spider species was only one. Did I mention that I don't like spiders very much, but oh well there's more on spiders in the links to follow.  I also discovered some news in regards to two bird species thought to be extinct, and some odd things as well. Enjoy.
