The Pangolin lumbered into the crowd of people accompanied by a few screams of small children before being retrieved by a keeper. Pangolins are such cool animals!
Have to say I always thought that for a species to be extinct that all specimens were dead,or does extinct have a different dictionary definition in the good old USA then the rest of the world!
Dang-it, I just realized that there is apparently one still in the U.S. (the one at the San Diego Zoo, unfortunately he's used only as a demonstration animal, and is off exhibit when not doing demonstrations.)

The San Diego pangolin now has an "on screen" exhibit - the former marmoset exhibit next to the playground in the Children's Zoo. It is a Manis tricuspis.
