When birders come to the Callejón de Huaylas, this is one of the endemics they most want to find, the rufous-backed Inca-finch (Incaspiza personata). I have the pleasure of seeing it, more often than not, when I go running.
Cuando los observadores de aves vienen al Callejón de Huaylas, esta es una de las especies endémicas que más desean encontrar, la Incaspiza personata. Tengo el placer de verlo, más a menudo de lo que no, cuando salgo a correr.

Borneo endemics: Proboscis monkeys (Nasalis larvatus) occur only on Borneo. They seasonally switch between eating fruit and leaves. To digest their cellulose-rich diet, they have complex, chambered stomachs that rely on symbiotic bacteria for digestion. The large nose is an acoustic resonance chamber.

Interesting facts #182 ~ Red handfish (Thymichthys politus)…
This strange-looking anglerfish, which is only found on two tiny patches of reef off Tasmania, could be one of the world's most endangered fish...
