An Exceedingly-Rare Mole Was Spotted in Australia

Wow!:

Anyway, back to the karrkaratul. We were driving along a bush track on our way home when this little golden creature ran across the road in front of us. Yalti yelled out "karrkaratul" and jumped out as I stopped the car. We all crowded round as Yalti held this beautiful creature carefully in her hands, its powerful front feet trying to dig to safety. Walimpirri told us how he'd last seen one many years ago near Kiwirrkurra, and some of the Rangers said they'd never seen one. The ladies pointed out that the blind face, and told us they eat scorpions and centipedes amongst other things. After a few minutes of wonder we gently put it down away from the road and watched in awe as it dug straight down and disappeared.
