TIL a rodent that was believed to have been extinct for 113 years suddenly showed up right in front of researchers, staying long enough for its picture to be taken, before it disappeared back into the Colombian forest, having never been seen again.

She submitted to the mortifying idea of being known

shes beautiful…

She’s the magnificent red-crested tree rat (Santamartamys rufodorsalis). In 2011 she bizarrely showed up at the front door of an ecolodge at a nature reserve in Colombia, South America and stayed for almost two hours while two research volunteers took the first photos ever of a creature the world thought would never be seen again.
