Star Wars Ewok Discovered in Andes Cloud Forest

August 16, 2013

Seriously. 

Kristofer Helgen led a search party into the Andes cloud forests and emerged with a new species straight from Star Wars. 

They call it an "olinguito" and say it eats figs but we all know what it really is. 

A raccoon escaped from Roswell?
