New Mammal Species Found in Borneo

lemonysam writes "The BBC is reporting that a new mammal species has been discovered in Borneo by a conservation group trying to document the local species, as part an effort to prevent the destruction of their habitat by logging and agriculture. The species, which has not been identified by local experts or the indigenous population, is roughly the size of a domestic cat and is believed to be carnivorous."

    Further in France's defence, consider the first day of the Battle of the Somme. The British got themselves slaughtered. The French, OTOH, did a bloody good job. Had we been up to their military standards that day, there'd be a damn sight fewer names on memorials all over England, and the war might have ended a good deal sooner.
