NEW SPECIES: I'M NO ANIMAL GUY BUT ...

... this is no "cat-like" creature! Tell me it's a lemur-like species; I'll believe you then.
A cat-like creature photographed by camera traps on Borneo Island is likely to be a new species of carnivore, the World Wildlife Fund said Tuesday.

If confirmed, the animal, which has dark red fur and a long, bushy tail, would be first new carnivore species discovered on the island since 1895, when the Borneo ferret-badger was found, the fund said.
