Odd-looking little bugger (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7213571.stm)
Despite the name, it's actually more closely related to sea cows than shrews.
Very cool! Thanks for posting this, ZD.
Fascinating -thank you! :)
I wonder if it tastes like chicken....I can't get the pic to work.
It's nice to see animal life is progressing ages and ages after they're endangered. ;)
Thank for this news! :D
Man they're ugly. I wouldn't want to be one of those :P

Maybe the Chinese government's filtering the site and doesn't want you seeing pictures of elephant shrews and thinking all sorts of subversive thoughts :lol:
Let me help you out with a pic:

Everything tastes like chicken if you add enough BBQ sauce.
