That tail is almost as long as Nessie's neck.

Amazing that our pollution-tainted world can produce more and more new species.
Wonder if we can interest anyone in species trading credits? You know, for every one that dies off if we find another one we are good to go?
I'd take this guy over the snail darter anyday.

I think it should be named the "Hildabeast".

I believe that all known lemur species live on Madagascar, so it would be hard to explain a lemur being found on Borneo. On the other hand, Madagascar was first settled by people from Borneo...maybe someone made a trip back home and took some lemurs back as pets.

Now we know where "mystery meat" come from!
To: VeniVidiVici
Hmm..does naming rights go to the person who took the photo or the one who captures/kills the creature.

Al Gore found this new species years ago (just before he invented the internet)

Wish I had. The jackalope's been around for a while.

That is possible considering human nature to having pets combined with homesickness.
