New Guinea big-eared bat
The last time anyone had seen this bat was in 1890, until of course a team of scientists stumbled upon a flock in 2012 while in the forests of Papua New Guinea. The bat is still rare but isn’t extinct anymore at least.

Cuban Solenodon
In 1970, the Cuban solenodon was thought to be extinct but zoologists rediscovered this cutie in 2003. In fact, they captured one before releasing him back to his natural habitat, but not before they named him “Alejandrito.”
