WHAT DOES THE BEAR SAY?
From Wikipedia:
"The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?)", is an electronic dance song and viral video by Norwegian comedy duo Ylvis.

It turns out that Old Rag Granite may contain the richest trove of Pelusios Seychellensis fossils anywhere in the world. While declared extinct this species of fresh water turtle is now considered one of the most extreme examples of having had a population bottleneck.

If we keep this up we will have wasted so much time that we will find ourselves in a future where extinct species are discovered to have never existed except in the past!!!"
