Today, i wanted to do al little poly research on the internet...just looking if i could find somthing new.

And i did:

Polypterus teugelsi (iucnredlist.org)

Am i the only one, who is surprised to find the teugelsi bichir on the red list?
I know, it's not the most urgent entry on the list....it's on "not evaluated" since 2010.
And, yes i know they are only found in the upper part of the cross river and there is a lot of deforestation going on... so there are not the best conditions.

But i'm still surprised... because the red list is... it's the red list.

What do you think? Did you knew it or are you surprised, too?
