The Nullarbor Dwarf Bettong (bettongia pusilla).

Crescent Nail-tail Wallaby (Onychogalea lunata)

The Woolley Mammoth until five years from now, in Japan.

That's great, Lynton, old chap, but No. 675 is the Bettong. The taxonomy is exact and taxing.

You've never seen such an exact taxing taxonomy. Honour me with your compliance with the exact and taxing taxonomy, honour me.

And you, too, Mr Bureau.

Oh what's the point. Add away...

Well not so sure of the number because yours is a fossil mine only died out in the last century or so.

So if it's Taxing taxonomy and Claudicating cladistics you want, how about the Bubal Hartebeest (Alcelaphus buselaphus ssp buselaphus)

Kingdom Animalia
Phylum Chordata
Class Mammalia
Order Cetartiodactyla
Family Bovidae

extinct, last one shot in 1954 in Algeria possibly by one of your explorer type chappies.

When I'm feeling bored I check out the Red List's species of the day

Today's is the LYRE HEAD LIZARD (Lyriocephalus scutatus)

Gray's Keyes

(Genderistus Prejudicus)

Lizard.

Sub category: Toomuchofwhatthecatlickeditsarsewithadon.

Extinct as recently as this very week.

It'd be good, being extinct.

No sir, I am to be let alone

Skoob.

He's finally got it!

It's My Fair Lady all over again.

This is what this bank holiday crowd have come to see.

What do you think, Andy?

Could you tuck this in for me love?

Skoob.

You're fired.

Don't stop now you two! It's getting interesting where extinct marsupials can lead to

The Hairy Dragon (Wifefuf naggifus)
Last seen doing the laundry circ 1975.

SKOOB, can I preserve your DNA?

The Puffing Bandicoot.

It had its own tobacco pouch.

Oh how we laughed.

(I'll never know)

But what of the Dirtebeeste?

The warriors of the Nittigritti tribesmen used to drink boiling dirtebeeste's milk before every battle.

The Nittigritti venerated the dirtebeeste. Who wouldn't?

Ask Victor about his recipe for dirtebeeste and tomato soup.

I realise I have digressed from the subject of extinction, but it's my thread so I'll vie if I want to, vie if I want to, vie if I want to.

And you'd vie too, if it happened to you.

Erskin is wrong about the Nittigritti. They suffer from it low down, and drink tepid sewer water for the cramps.

They were driven from their homes on Clapham Common and now survive in the wilderness of Putney Heath. The staple diet of Givens pigmy horseradish is now exstinct. So the diet is supplimented by a cows arse from WWW McDonats.

Dont mean to be picky.

I'm sorry, Arm, but that is mere balderdash.

I have lived among the nittigritti. I was there 3 years. I have the scars to prove it. Dirtebeeste's milk plays havoc with a western digestive system. And as for the ritual.

I think you may have got hold of the cockinees, the Borneo tribe who colonised these islands before the Romans, and whose legacy lives on in the Pearly Kings & Queens and their diet of jellied eels and pie and mash.

Vie all you want because I know for sure that the Spoofwriterwalkinguprightlikeahumanpretendingtobesane is extremely rare and close to 'distinction' - I mean 'extinction' - no I was correct the FIRST time 'distinction'.

Their diet is 'words' but some have died from 'choking on theirs recently or having too many with the spoofriendsinjestbuttakenthewrongway species

They are, indeed, on the endangered species list and need your support.

I really can't comment on the dirtebeeste and tomato soup recipe however it does sound delicious.

I suppose the closest thing that springs to mind was a Slovenian dish of tripe in tomato sauce called vampi I once enjoyed in Ljubliana before the war broke out.

It was near the Hotel Slon (elephant) as I recall.

I'm afraid it's gotten to the point where I don't even have to make these things up anymore.

Erskin, you are right, it was the Cocknees that migrated to the Putney Heath sanctuary. I was reading SKOOB1999 book and he claims it was HE who found the last member of the Nittigritti tribe. And squashed him. And in that book, he cites you as being the person that introduced them to the milk of human detritus,that killed them off.

Which reminds me directly of the story of the Badger Boy which was related to me by an associate of mine today while being chauffeured in a Hummer through a snowstorm.

Apparenty a young boy went missing at the turn of the century and lived in a badger hole where he was taken care of by a female badger who had lost her own infants. The boy was reported to have some mental difficulty and had bonded with the badger.

He was found by a native Shaman who sensed the bond the child had developed and returned him to his parents after caring for him for some days.

The story has been made into a children's book and the Badger Boy was the great uncle of the man who spoke to me.

Very strange indeed.

Of course there are also the Secksibeeste and the Filthibeeste the latter being a large more gross form of the Dirtibeest and the former being a sadly deluded Gnu. Then there is the almost extinct Gerroffyabloodybeest who's ecological niche is being filled slowly but surely by the Greater Migraine which once seen by hunters they give up and retire back into their lodges knowing it is no use to even try.

Badger boy however can only be Wayne Rooney not only dues to his grunting and snuffling but also to his inclination towards brindled old Badgers he picks up in Bingo halls in the Greater Manchester area.

Exactly my point Lynton.
