Ever heard of a fish that can walk, a snake that looks like jewellery or a monkey without a nose? These might seem alien but they exist.

The areas where they have been spotted include Bhutan, Nepal, the far north of Myanmar, the southern parts of Tibet, but most of these fascinating creatures are from India.
