metabetta:Sadly, three drunk men killed one of the rarest animals on earth, the Devil’s Hole Pupfish. The men broke into a restricted area in Death Valley, destroyed some of the cameras surveilling the protected pool, and got into the water, killing one of animals. They have been apprehended. There are only about 100-400 Devil’s Hole Pupfish in the world (though numbers have dipped as low as 40 in recent years), and they live exclusively in a small, 6.6ft x 13 ft limestone pool in Death Valley. -- source link
