Exactly. Once again, that the formal signs are put on the principle of "if specified, then there is, but if not specified - not the fact that there is." Now to finish the description, which is more infa, not just in formal attributes. But the story is not for all time being ...

In early July this curiosity was found by us in the most that neither is on Asia - South Western Siberia, near the city of Prokopevsk Kemerovsoy area. That is, the habitat has changed? Global warming? She had behaved very sluggish and not aktivnichal, really like unearthly-who want to approach and look to take home.Wood was the usual deciduous -bereza / aspen, shady hill slope. Visiting more went on foot, although there were no injuries wing. Snikli somehow quickly, without trying to escape into the wild, as though asleep.
