[QUOTE=jason3232;32467712]At birth, the Chinese white dolphins are black. They change to grey, then pinkish with spots when young. Adults are white.[/QUOTE]
I say sorcery. I have never seen a Chinese black dolphin turn white. Unless someone is making pacts with the devil I refuse to believe a leopard will [i]ever[/i] change its spots.
Red eyes.

[QUOTE=DesumThePanda;32467775]I'm pretty sure people are just being overly optimistic that there's a possibility that it might be a new species. I can see the resemblance and I'm almost sure it's a cuscus, but it seems odd that since they're located Australia and not China. Seems very odd to me.[/QUOTE]
The penguin in New Zealand was "odd" too, but nobody was quick to call it a new species.

It was brought in by a person, not found in a natural habitat. That's equivalent to saying if I bring my cat to China then it should be deemed a new species.
[QUOTE=yawmwen;32467429]But dude, one is orange and the other is white.
How do you explain THAT?!

New species are found almost every year, it's not even a matter of something completely ground breaking and new. It's just that maybe the peasants have known about this animal but scientists have never studied it.
[QUOTE=jeimizu;32466333]Googled cuscus to see more pictures of it. Got this awesome picture.

This species was only discovered a few years ago according to the article, in Papua New Guinea.[/QUOTE]
This photo further drives my desire to own one of these as a pet. If that's legal.
I mean, how awesome would it be to have it just chilling out and clinging on your shoulder? :v:
[QUOTE=Gekkosan;32441329]I don't like the looks of it![/QUOTE]
I don't like the looks of you. Can we put you to sleep?

I want one as a pet.

Just, what?
What?
Okay, you idiots, here. Obviously you're too blind to see these obvious attributes.

If you're so fucking in denial that teh WNE SPESHEES TAT ISNT A FISH is already known, that you blatantly disagree to such an obvious cousin/match of said species, then you're an idiot and should get the fuck out.

There is a good reason why we don't base species classification on appearance anymore.
Different species.

bats are cute
I'm guessing this is a new Australian hybrid species, like platypi.
