New Garden of Eden?

OK, that's a little blown out of proportion, but this story describes how scientists exploring part of New Guinea found species of animals and plants that were previously unknown, including a frog that is only 14mm. That is almost shocking to me that in the year 2006 there are parts of the world that man has not reached due to reasons other than temperature. Hopefully they don't also find oil there so we can at least keep some parts of the world in some kind of natural state.
