Dystopiary
putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon
Some good news is needed, so how about this for a start. A giant tortoise thought to be extinct has been discovered. on the Galapagos island of Fernandina.
She's been named Fernanda after the island, and is estimated to be over 50 years old. She could live to be about 200, so there's hopefully plenty of time to find her a mate.
Look at that little wizened face!
