2 Lucky Gents discover rare species

Discovery of a Red Ruby Seadragon


Article heading image for 2 Lucky Gents discover rare species

I recently got the exclusive in chatting to two gentleman who were on the boat that discovered a very rare species (or even 2 rare species) off Esperance's coast. They were a part of a voyage that recently discovered a bright red Ruby Sea-dragon which is the 3rd (and possibly a 4th species too) discovered in the world.

This has garnered worldwide attention and has even caught the eye of Harry Potter author J.K Rowling who tweeted that if she needs further inspiration for her "Fantastic Beasts" series, she needs to look no further than here in Esperance. But before you get excited trying to look for these creatures, unfortunately its the equivalent of finding a needle in a haystack.  

Either way, its big news for Esperance, hopefully more of these beautiful creatures are discovered soon.
