The Animals named for Sir David Attenborough - Catherine - 02-13-2017
It seems Sir David has some very interesting animals named for him. I found a list. Most of us never even get a fly named after us, but after all the good he has done for animals he deserves every naming.

They are a pretty cool collection. The latest one is very pretty. Let us hope that Sir David lives many more years and has many more new species named for him.
