TIL a species of monkey known as the Lesula was discovered in 2007 (though already known by locals). It has a brilliantly blue bottom.

Makes specific mention of notably-colored ass and balls, shows no pictures of monkey’s backside…

If it was already known to locals was it really discovered in 2007? Wouldn’t that be more like categorized or registered?

“Undiscovered species” are almost always known of by locals. What it really means is that no scientist ever bothered asking the locals to show them the animals they knew about.
