Talk:Extinction

Proof needed

This paragraph was included in the extinction article. I have removed it and place it here until it can be proved with citations. I have done a quick internet search and can't find any other version of this story.

The Dodo, once thought to be extinct has been identified in the an old documentary filmed in middle Africa. Thought to be extinct hundreds of years ago, the bird was identified in the background of a documentary of the African jungle. Most researchers did not believe the story until they personally observed the video during a cleanup of an old schools reel films. The unusually odd happening has stunned the scientific world and raised questions if there are other extinct animals still living. The bird has been placed on the extinction list once again since there had been no reported sightings since the 1917 film.

Quite right: it's complete rubbish, and in any event no-one could accurately identify a species from such a source. Macdonald-ross (talk) 11:12, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
