@vonny,
Ahhhh, here's a story from my last home town. I'm so glad they found her..

http://www.northcoastjournal.com/NewsBlog/archives/2015/11/21/despite-dozens-of-volunteers-panda-search-comes-up-empty

but there was an update if you read the post.

Here's Masala:

I have loved that zoo (and I don't love many zoos) and the sequoia filled park next to it. Oh, and I've loved that whole small city very much.

Quote:
Despite its name, the maned wolf is not a wolf at all, nor is it a fox, coyote, or dog. It is the only member of the Chrysocyon genus, making it a truly unique animal, not closely related to any other living canid. One hypothesis for this is that the maned wolf is the last surviving species of the Pleistocene Extinction, which wiped out all other large canids from the continent.

@hingehead,
Lovely, especially the black legs but all completely lovely.

@ossobuco,
I just looked up the Pleistocene extinction

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternary_extinction_event

Recent, so would explain why no new species in the genus. Hit Australia hard - we lost 15 of 16 megafauna species.

Very glad these cuties survived.

@FBM,
A young Victoria's riflebird practices a mating display he'll need when he's older.

@tsarstepan,
A wildcat approaches a pond to try and catch a frog for lunch - but is out of luck as it hops away in the nick of time. The picture was taken at a pond in Orbec in Normandy, France, by photographer Gerard Lacz.
