  • This entry was a >5x expansion just prior to its nomination. The article is sourced and well-written. There are no copyvios detected. QPQ done. The hook is interesting. My only concern is that the sourced statement in the article says that this animal does not need to drink, but the hook says it does not drink. Is there a source for it actually not drinking?
