- [Narrator] To date, scientists have found

And there is one man still determined to find more.

He is an entomologist, but he doesn't always work

- [Narrator] He tracks to the Patagonian ice fields

searching for new insect species that have been hiding

- [Isaí] Due to the frigid and drastically changing climate,

there is very little information on the insects

I'm looking for creatures smaller than my pinky nail,

so I'm always searching for the tiniest indication

but his responsibility to continue this work.

With more than 40 possible species under review,

because the homes of these insects are rapidly disappearing

I hope to continue studying them and to discover their

hidden worlds before our biodiversity is changed forever.
