Summary: This month, it was found that a subspecies of the giant tortises on the galapagos islands was found. These turtles were deemed extinct but may now have a hope. Here are some other animals that have come back from extinction:
~Miller's Grizzled Langurs
~Coelacanth
~Laotian Rock Rat
~Mountain Pygmy-Possum
~Worcestor's Button Quail
~Caspian Horse
~Wooly Flying Squirrell
~Bridled Nailtail Wallaby
~Javan Elephants
Critique: I never knew animals could come back from extinction! And each type of animal has a cool story behind it... Like the caspian horse used to be used in Persia 1000+ years ago, but was rediscovered. I think that is so awesome!
Impact: Maybe more animals that we think are extinct actually aren't!!!!
