Just saw a link to this story and good god that is a big arse insect. They brought it back from actual extinction (since the only habitat that had any had none) and then found a few hidden away. Rather than try to fix their habitat they bred them in captivity and now have far too many to bring back to where they came from so they are trying to find something to do with them.
I wonder how many other things out there are like this, just a few specimens hanging out in a remote part of the world where nobody knows they are. Kind of freaky when you think about it that something like this could still be out there but simply just so well hidden or remote that it just gets on with things in isolation. I just hope that some of the creatures we know are in danger have some hideouts that we don't know about and can be kept safe in the long run.
