New Scientist Breaking News - Mystery mammal discovered in Borneo’s forests:
"A mysterious red furry creature, captured on film in the dense forests of Borneo, could be a new species of carnivore.
The mammal, which is slightly larger than a domestic cat, has dark red fur and a long, bushy tail. It was snapped twice at night by a camera trap set up by researchers from the conservation group WWF.
Its general shape – with a possibly pointed snout, small ears, and large powerful hind legs – suggests it is a meat-eater. It has some similarities with martens or civets and could belong to these groups, or it may belong to an entirely new group, says WWF."
