8 'extinct' species found alive and kicking

There is no "extinction crisis" as this article falsely claims.

Which isn't to say that there aren't any plants and animals that are in real trouble and in need of help.

But the oft repeated claim about a modern mass extinction is actually based upon no real world evidence, ie careful surveys looking for actual plants and animals, but rather a mathematical model.

It is on this basis that the transnational money-making racket called Greenpeace says that 20,000 species go extinct every year.

Now, they've been saying that for around 20 years now, so that means something like 400,000 species have supposedly disappeared. However, you'd be hard pressed to put together a list of 20 confirmed extinctions for this time period.

But anyway, it is always good news to see that something thought to be gone forever is still with us.
