The Tiny Somali Elephant
Shrew Defied Extinction. Demand Scientists Work to Keep
It That
Way! | | |
Against all odds, the
Somali elephant shrew -- once declared extinct to
due data deficiency -- has been spotted in
Djibouti! After hearing about the miraculous
sighting that seemed to signal that the Somali elephant shrew was
back from the dead, a handful of
researchers decided to investigate these small mammals
in the Horn of Africa. By offering sweet peanut butter
treats to the elephant shrews, researchers were able to
spot 12 of them living happily together.
This research project was a
great start, but far more information is needed in order
to protect them and their vital contribution to our
world's biodiversity. Now, the IUCN must invest
time and resources into further examining the Somali
elephant shrew to make sure they, and other animals like
them, are fully protected from extinction. Sign the petition now if you
agree! | | |

P.S.
The Somali elephant shrew shocked the world when it
reappeared after assumed extinction. But we can't rest
until it is fully protected. Sign the
petition. |
