Living Fossil

Question

I was browsing through the BBC's news website today when I came across this

 

 

A species of frog that was recently rediscovered after being declared extinct has been reclassified as a "living fossil".

Israel's Hula painted frog had not been seen for nearly 60 years, but in 2011 one was found lurking in a patch of swampy undergrowth.

Tests have revealed that the frog belongs to a group of amphibians that died out 15,000 years ago.

So here we have another creature from the past that turns out to be alive. I believe this makes the case for creatures like bigfoot to be more accurate.

 

Creatures thought to be dead and gone are actually still around today.
