It turns out that I made a mistake. The “Newt Rhino” I posted earlier may in fact have been a Rhino Newt. This one is the real Newt Rhino. I hope. I’m sorry for any confusion or inconvenience I may have caused.

This is exciting, because it turns out that the Newt Rhino is extremely abundant, possibly the most abundant animal there is. However, they are elusive and scientists can’t even agree about their mass yet.
I’m hoping to find out even more at a University of Oxford seminar next week by Dr. Antonin Vacheret. The title is “Neutrino, the invisible messenger” – I wonder if they’ve spotted their spelling mistake.
