Rare animals iceberg breakdownfrom @psychopoly_official

Iceberg of animals that have only been seen once. First up we have the nisha saur nightjar. So pretty much only one wing of this bird has ever been seen. In Ethiopia back in 1990 there was this team of bird researchers that found this old rank over bird on the good. And after examining it, they realized that nobody knew what it was because it seemed to be a completely new species of bird. And then for the past thirty years, scientists have looked everywhere in Ethiopia and the surrounding regions to find this thing, but they found no traces as if it was like the last of its kind or the only one we're gonna see, but it may have just been a hybrid of the regular nightjar. Philippine angel shark. These have only been seen once in the wild back in 1995 when this ship was dredging at the depth of like 1,200 feet and they pulled up this dead specimen of shark that they'd never seen before rank they preserved it in a museum and no second specimen has ever been found. The Andean wolf. So this is like a high altitude variant of the Maine wolf, which the main wolf is a really weird wolf already. It is this very strange canine thing that kinda looks like a werewolf, and it's kinda like fox looking. It has raised shoulders like a hyena. It's kind of an an uncanny looking creature. But the Andean wolf is theorized to live in the Andes Mountains in this snowy area. But all we found is one single pelt that these locals claimed was just this wild dog. And then scientists examined this pelt and declared that it was likely a mountain dwelling version of the Maine wolf. But this is still unverified. Some people even think that this whole pelt thing was a hoax. Spade toothed whale. So we actually have zero live sightings of spade toothed whales anywhere in the world. They were actually only a hypothetical species for over a hundred and forty years. The first jawbone fragment was found back in 1872, and then it wasn't until 2010 when two deceased whales, a mother and calf, washed up on shore of New Zealand that we were able to confirm that it actually existed, and this was the first time anybody actually saw what these things good like. So like if you worst a real adventure in your life, you could devote your entire life to trying to find these whales because nobody has ever seen these things and it would just be insane to find these things because you're going to, like, the most isolated places in the world. You'd be going to, like, Point Nemo to try to find these or where they're washing up near giant snake in The Congo. So there's this guy named Van Lear.
