Native to Vietnam, the saola is a horned species so illusive, it’s been nicknamed the Asian unicorn. Researchers reconstructed the genomes of 26 saola using samples from hunting trophies. A ...

Last seen in 2013, the elusive saola or 'Asian unicorn' may be extinct—or still hiding in Vietnam’s forests. New genetic study offers a glimmer of hope.

The saola (Pseudoryx nghetinhensis) was discovered by science in 1992, making it the most recently discovered large mammal. The second-most recent was the kouprey, discovered in 1937.

The saola is one of the world's rarest and most elusive large land mammals. The saola is also known as the Asian unicorn. In the Lao language, saola means "spinning wheel posts".
