The saola, often referred to as the "Asian unicorn," is endearing due to its rarity and unique appearance, characterized by long, straight horns and striking facial markings. Discovered only in 1992 in the Annamite Range of Vietnam and Laos, it captures the imagination as an elusive and enigmatic species. Its vulnerable status, primarily due to habitat loss and poaching, further garners sympathy and concern from conservationists and the public alike. This combination of charm, mystery, and the need for protection makes the saola a beloved symbol of biodiversity.
