Pig-Footed Bandicoot
The pig-footed bandicoot became extinct in the 1950’s. It was a small marsupial animal that dwelt in the arid plains of Australia. Unfortunately, scientists didn’t get the opportunity to conduct much research on these little animals. However, the Aboriginal people said that these animals were capable of running quite fast and even seemed to gallop. They were nocturnal animals.

Bubal Hartebeest
The Bubal hartebeest is found in scripture from some millennia ago, and was recorded as one of the animals used in sacrificial rituals in Egypt. When European hunters discovered the animal, they hunted it until there was only a single one left which was safe in a Paris zoo. It died in 1923.
