Tiny elephant shrew species rediscovered in Africa after 50 years

A mouse-sized elephant shrew which had not been documented scientifically for over 50 years has been rediscovered in Djibouti, a country on the Horn of Africa. The last scientific record of Somali sengi was in the 1970s, despite local sightings. The Somali sengi mates for life, can race around at 30 kmph and sucks up ants with its trunk-like nose.
