Saola

This appears to be one of the best images, to date, of the saola, a classic animal of cryptozoological discovery, taken in the wild.

Only discovered in 1992, the saola (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis) is a shy forest antelope from the Annamite Mountains in Southeast Asia. Some have noted it was discovered in a lost world in Vietnam-Laos. The species is likely down to only a few dozen survivors. Habitat loss, trapping, and hunting could wipe it out rapidly.
