Tiny, long-lost primate rediscovered in Indonesia

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – On a misty mountaintop on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, scientists for the first time in more than eight decades have observed a living pygmy tarsier, one of the planet’s smallest and rarest primates.

Over a two-month period, the scientists used nets to trap three furry, mouse-sized pygmy tarsiers — two males and one female — on Mt. Rore Katimbo in Lore Lindu National Park in central Sulawesi, the researchers said on Tuesday.

They spotted a fourth one that got away.

The tarsiers, which some scientists believed were extinct, may not have been overly thrilled to be found. One of them chomped Sharon Gursky-Doyen, a Texas A&M University professor of anthropology who took part in the expedition.

“I’m the only person in the world to ever be bitten by a pygmy tarsier,” Gursky-Doyen said in a telephone interview.

“My assistant was trying to hold him still while I was attaching a radio collar around its neck. It’s very hard to hold them because they can turn their heads around 180 degrees. As I’m trying to close the radio collar, he turned his head and nipped my finger. And I yanked it and I was bleeding.”

The collars were being attached so the tarsiers’ movements could be tracked.

Tarsiers are unusual primates — the mammalian group that includes lemurs, monkeys, apes and people. The handful of tarsier species live on various Asian islands.

As their name indicates, pygmy tarsiers are small — weighing about 2 ounces (50 grammes). They have large eyes and large ears, and they have been described as looking a bit like one of the creatures in the 1984 Hollywood movie “Gremlins.”

They are nocturnal insectivores and are unusual among primates in that they have claws rather than finger nails.

They had not been seen alive by scientists since 1921. In 2000, Indonesian scientists who were trapping rats in the Sulawesi highlands accidentally trapped and killed a pygmy tarsier.

“Until that time, everyone really didn’t believe that they existed because people had been going out looking for them for decades and nobody had seen them or heard them,” Gursky-Doyen said.

Her group observed the first live pygmy tarsier in August at an elevation of about 6,900 feet.

“Everything was covered in moss and the clouds are right at the top of that mountain. It’s always very, very foggy, very, very dense. It’s cold up there. When you’re one degree from the equator, you expect to be hot. You don’t expect to be shivering most of the time. That’s what we were doing,” she said.

LONDON — Winona Ryder was briefly hospitalized after falling ill on a flight to London’s Heathrow Airport on Wednesday, her publicist said. Mara Buxbaum said the 37-year-old actress was taken to a west London hospital “as a precaution” and had been released.

“She’s fine now,” Buxbaum said. She declined to go into details of Ryder’s illness.

British Airways said a flight from Los Angeles to Heathrow requested priority landing after a female passenger “required medical attention” and was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

“Our cabin crew looked after the female passenger as much as they could onboard and our passenger services staff also accompanied her to the local hospital,” the statement said. “We wish her well.”

Ryder, who began her film career as a teenager in 1986, earned back-to-back Oscar nominations in the 1990s for “Little Women” and the “The Age of Innocence.” She’s also known for youthful roles in films including “Heathers,” “Edward Scissorhands” and “Girl, Interrupted. She has mostly stayed out of the headlines after her 2002 conviction for stealing several thousand dollars worth of merchandise from a Saks Fifth Avenue store in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Ryder had prescription drugs in her possession when she was arrested _ but a drug charge was dropped after a doctor said he had prescribed the medication. A probation report stemming from the shoplifting incident showed that Ryder had dozens of prescriptions filled by 20 doctors over three years.

Twilight Mania in Search
by Mike Krumboltz

The buzz surrounding “Twilight” can not be overstated. Searches on the vampire flick are through the roof. Meanwhile, related lookups for the film’s stars continue to soar, and queries for the movie’s hunky main character are flexing their blood-stained muscles. Here’s a roundup of the biggest Twilight searches from the week. Try to contain your screeching.

Twilight Reviews
The hotly anticipated film won’t hit theaters until Friday, but searchers are already yearning, longing, and pining for reviews. Variety calls it “a supernatural romance in which the supernatural and romantic elements feel rushed, unformed, and insufficiently motivated.” Not exactly a ringing endorsement, but other reviews, when available, may mitigate Variety’s harsh words.

Twilight Tickets
Service charges be damned — fans nervous about sell-out crowds on opening weekend are buying their tickets in advance. Lookups on “twilight tickets,” “buy twilight tickets,” and “twilight movie tickets” are all sky-high. Smart thinking — an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of garlic at the box office.

Edward Cullen
He’s the brooding teen vampire that has teenage girls screaming like, well, teenage girls. Females make up over 80% of the searches for the fictional character. But the obsession doesn’t stop there. Related queries are also flying for “edward cullen fan fiction” and “edward cullen biography.” Dracula may finally have some competition for the title of world’s most famous blood-sucker.

Twilight Cast
The two headliners, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, are on the fast track to Hollywood’s A-list. Searches for Ms. Stewart are up 87% this week and among our top 1,200 overall terms. Her on-screen love interest, meanwhile, can boast of even more dedicated supporters. His searches are about to break into the top 500 terms. No doubt his glorious (and nice-smelling) head of hair is contributing to his success.

Stephanie Meyer
She’s the author behind the Twilight books, and few writers can match Ms. Meyer’s hold over search right now. Queries are up 79% this week, and related terms like “stephanie meyer books,” “stephanie meyer photos,” and “stephaniemeyer.com” are flashing their fangs. Does a J.K. Rowling level of fame await this novelist?

Drink a lot of water daily. It keeps you stay healhty. It’s a secret … every body know it but less actualy did it. That’s the tips of the day folks. Hav a nice time. Chao…
