Rare spotless giraffe has gotten a name : NPR

To me it looks like it's not missing "spots", it's actually missing the pale lines that make the underlying brown coat look as if it is spotted. Its like a netting pattern superimposed over their coats. Who knew?

A long-beaked echidna, named after David Attenborough and thought to be extinct, has been rediscovered in the mountains of Indonesia.

The long-lost species of mammal is described as having the spines of a hedgehog, the snout of an anteater and the feet of a mole.

It was caught on camera in Indonesia's Cyclops Mountains more than 60 years after it was last recorded - on the very last day of a four-week expedition led by Oxford University scientists.
