n the case of baiji sightings last 2007 sa yangtze, onyl 1 individual has been spotted. The fact that taxonomist declared baiji as functionally extinct is still copnsidered as a question since baka meron pang ibang individuals na hinde nila naitala @ capable pa for breeding.

hopefuly npa baiji

bojol.

sayng man sad gud . id dili cla mka kita ug pair . at least they keep a DNA sample . for future use. im sure it can e cloned,...

I beg to dissagree... A scientific joke hoax??

This isn't true and it NEVER happened.. I know, i used to work with Hobart Zoo in Tasmania, Aus. And our Zoo is the centre for research on the Tazzie.

How can you clone a long extinct animal and surrogate it with of an animal not from it's own taxon? The Common Fox (genus Vulpes spp.) could never and is literally impossible to surrogate a Tasmanian Tiger (Thylacinus cyanocephalus). A fox's a canid while the Tazzie's a marsupial?

Unless the Fox's a transgenic (which i've never ever encountered since, not to mention quite improbable), then... Still is a bloody hoax..



Anyway, back on topic...

Last animals i knew of that went extinct was the Miss Waldron's Red Colobus (Piliocolobus badius waldronae; before/after 2000; possibly a Lazarus species), and the Western Black Rhino (Diceros bicornis longipes, probably around 2006).

And these two endemic Philippine mammals are about to join the list very very soon (i'm still hopeful they won't). The Cebu Flowerpecker (Dicaeum quadricolor), and the Philippine Bare-Backed Fruit Bat (Dobsonia chapmani). They have been classified as extinct before, and now being upped to the Lazarus taxon. Hopefully, they won't slide back down to extinction again.

so it is a hoax~ hehehhehehehe


BTW, Philippine Bare-Backed Fruit Bat is critically endangered right? so these two (Dicaeum sp. & PBB fruitbat) are candidates of extinction............. T_T

The Philippine Bare-back fruit bat was once declared extinct on Cebu and Negros after failing to record the bat despite systemic searches within its known distribution sites and potential habitats. Much to everyone’s astonishment, the Philippine Bare-back fruit bat was rediscovered first in Cebu in 2001 by wildlife biologist of CBCF and was rediscovered in Negros in 2003 by wildlife biologists from Silliman University. The most distinguishing feature of this species is the naked membrane of the wings that extends to the midline of the back. It lives on limestone caves and is severely threatened by guano mining, cave and forest destruction as well as hunting activities.
