The albino tapir is probably even more rare than the white Bigfoot
According to local legend, an elusive, pure-white lowland tapir was said to be roaming Brazil’s Atlantic rain forest. When Brazilian photographer Luciano Candisani heard about it, he was determined to capture an image of it. According to Nation Geographic, nobody had ever taken a photo of an albino tapir in the wild -- until now. GrindTV reported the news on Tuesday:
The award-winning photographer had done it. He’d captured an albino tapir on camera. The photo was taken last May and first appeared in the Brazilian edition of National Geographic before National Geographic posted it three days ago. Candisani told National Geographic he felt lucky to have photographed such a rare and elusive animal.
“Rarity!” Candisani wrote in a Facebook post Monday. “It is the first record of an albino tapir in the wild in Brazil.”

More rare than an albino Bigfoot, yet there's a clear photo.
ReplyDeleteAnd there are fewer than zero of them!
DeleteApparently tapirs lack those special powers to avoid detection enjoyed by bigfoots.
DeleteGot monkey?
ReplyDeleteWhere were you when you realised bigfoot don't exist?
ReplyDeleteI believe I was in front of a TV at work watching the second airliner hit the World Trade Center.
DeleteWas the worlds last and only bigfoot flying that plane?
DeleteI was here looking at this website for the first time. That sealed it for me.
DeleteI wonder why Idaho State isn't on this list? Maybe Dr. Meldrum can tell us:

Haints, what up with your list?? I can only see it for a mili-second.
DeleteI wish I knew so that I could reproduce the effect for future posts.
DeleteI'm afraid Dr. Meldrum is too busy holding classes at Cabela's to answer that question.

DeleteYou ask "I wonder why Idaho State isn't on this list?"
DeleteA lot of schools teach anthropology that didn't make this list. It doesn't diminish Dr. Meldrum.
