new animal discovery



New animal discovery

So... you thought you've seen it all huh? You've been to the zoo,

you've watched "Animal Planet", maybe even read a few magazines like

National Geographic, but then along comes the news this morning, that

a new mammal has been discovered in Tanzania.

I gotta say, it's a cute and creepy looking bugger... When I first saw

it, my impression was that there was some connection to a bat. But is

actually related to an elephant (among others).

I think discoveries like this are amazing. It's a nice reminder to say

"there is stuff out there that we don't know yet." Which for me, is

good news.
