A recently discovered fossil of Laonastes matched the "living" specimen in skull shape and overall size. The only difference is that the "living" specimen's teeth are slightly more pointed. 11 million years and the only change in the animial is pointer teeth?
Evolution at work...

Idiot MSM.
This squirrel-like rodent was first believed to be a new species, but scientists say it is actually the only living representative of the otherwise extinct Distomydae family of rodents.
Well, it can still be a new species in a otherwise extict family. Did these people skip high school biology and all the hours normally spent with kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species? Or did they just stick to birth control for cucumbers in their biology classes?

Anyone can wipe out a species .... now a family is another matter.
