Endangered already

In addition to unplanned teen pregnancies, the discoveries of hitherto unknown species of mammals are also on the rise:

In this undated photo released by Conservation International, mammalogist Martua Sinaga holds a 1.4 kg giant rat that is probably a species new to science, in Foja mountains in Indonesia’s easternmost Papua province, Indonesia. Researchers in a remote jungle in Indonesia have discovered a giant rat and a tiny possum that are apparently new to science, underscoring the stunning biodiversity of the Southeast Asian nation, scientists said.

This is certainly a happy find for rodent fans, but how long until certain members of the R&B community catch wind of these creatures’ existence and convert them into a new kind of winter wardrobe staple?

    They actually tried that a few years ago with nutria in Louisiana. It’s like muskrat, but quite destructive. Beautiful fur. Nobody could be bothered to trap the little monsters, though, at five bucks a pelt.
