News item: Cryptozoological mystery is an obligate urban animal.

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2006/03/0321_060321_tyco_fox.html?source=rss

Perry Sumner, a biologist with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, said it's likely a red fox with a rare genetic condition known as Sampson, an abnormality in which the animal lacks a layer of fur called guard hair. Without this thick outer coat for protection, the normally nocturnal fox would be forced to hunt during the day when it's warm and sleep under heated buildings at night. In recent years, Sumner said, other Sampson foxes have been spotted in urban areas around the state

WOW! That's cool. I am a total advocate for cryptozoology and love it that you posted this. I'm still hoping that some team or expedition will round up a NorthAmerican Ape of some sort, such as a Sasquach or a Florida Skunk Ape... we can only hope. I think it would also be hugely controversial if ever a Nandy Bear or a Mokolombembe were retreaved from Africa. That would turn the world on its ear!
