Diminutive, but not Disappeared: Rare dwarf lemur rediscovered 100 years after last sighting.

  • I am not too surprised that thing is still around. I mean, how many people are really out looking for one of those? I could have on in my attic or under my house and I wouldn't even know it. There are other animals I am much more confident are extinct because people would be much more likely to run into them. The T-rex, for example, is very likely extinct. Using this same logic, I also believe that unicorns are extinct.
  • Yippie dwarf lemur!! Keep hidin' lil' buddy. Whatever you're doin', you're doin' it right. ... I also believe that unicorns are extinct. OMG!! :O *shocked face* ARE NOT!! I saw it on the intartubes. They must be real. Well, kinda real. Or sumpthin'.
  • They ARE real! Well, sort of. A rare deformity sometimes produces unicorn-like horned mammals.
  • Deer have antlers that drop off, rather than horns that don't. So the deer with one is a temp worker in uniform, not a unicorn.
