AI overview
The saola is a rare, forest-dwelling bovid native to the mountainous border region between Vietnam and Laos that was first discovered in 1993 and is sometimes called the "Asian unicorn." It matters because of its extreme rarity and conservation status, though attempts to study it in captivity have been unsuccessful, as captured saolas have consistently died within weeks to months.
