Talk:List of megafauna recently discovered

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Removed "* Platypus Ornithorhynchus anatinus (first specimens returned to Europe in 1700s, and believed to be taxidermical hoax)" from the "Megafauna initially believed to have been fictitious or hoaxes" section. While I'm sure platypi were thought to be hoaxes, they are hardly megafauna. Okapi should probably be removed as well.

[edit] Przewalski's Horse

I removed Prezwalski's Horse from this list because according to the information on its page, the population that now exists in the wild was what was released from captivity. It was not discovered.

[edit] Search for "recent", "recently" in Wikipedia the recent encyclopedia

I just typed these words in the search box. Shall those discoveries still be recent when they're 60 years old ?

Please move to "megafauna discovered since 1850, BC" or what you prefer. Thanks. -- DLL ^{.. T} 21:03, 2 March 2007 (UTC) P.S. where's the summary box today ?

[edit] Two Entries for Coelacanth

Is there a reason there are two conflicting entries for the Coelacanth, or is it a silent disagreement between to contributors?CDrecche (talk) 01:21, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
