An "extraordinary" desert creature has been caught on camera for what scientists believe is the first time. The long-eared jerboa, a tiny nocturnal mammal that is dwarfed by its enormous ears, can be found in deserts in Mongolia and China.

I have heard that many times today, it's very misleading though it makes people think its a new specie but all they have actually done is capture it on camera for the first time. Does look pretty funny though.
