Divering

I was just chilling and looking for something to read, because teachers say that it is important to read, specially extensively, because you enjoy the reading and all that stuff, but I was like '' I want to learn something new'' ''not just for enjoyment'' and there it was, history and nature together  my two favorite topics and they were together!! also there was new vocabulary, so I felt so happy about learning and enjoy the topics!
 In the Madagascar island,  around 5000 years ago there was a lot of diversity of animals, but nowadays they have been extinct. The introduce of cattle and humans into the island have provoked the extinction of these animals. There is a clear instance about that when an Asutralian diver, Ryan Dart uncovered three flooded caves, calling then,  colleagues of him, "The materials we found in the caves are almost pristine,"  Alfred Rosenberger. the bones of individual animals  were also found so closely grouped together, palaeontologists thing that these bones are from extinct lemurs the size of gorillas. 
 Here is the Link where you can find more info. about it.
