"People aren't too fond of 'em, but I think there's actually something quite endearing about them," says scientist Stanley Keen of the endangered mammal called the Obeast. In a video clip, Keen and a colleague track and shoot an Obeast with a tranquilizer gun, so that we may learn more about these reclusive creatures.

Rewind: The first thing you should know about the Obeast is that it doesn't actually exist. It's part of an art project by Rachel Herrick.
