  • Comment: To verify the source for the hook (rather than AGF), go to Amazon.com, find the cited book, use the "Look inside" feature, and search for "Pachylemur". It should take you directly to page 172. If you scroll through the book, you may not be shown that specific page. – VisionHolder « talk » 18:32, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Excellent extremely well-sourced and illustrated article. It seems I can not access pages 7 to 226 in the book cited in Amazon though (The Anthropology of Extinction: Essays on Culture and Species Death right?), so I guess I'll just have to AGF. :) -- OBSIDIANSOUL 21:35, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
