Under a veil of darkness, an animal was brought to the Greenville Zoo. Here’s what we know (and what we don’t).

Someone call Sherlock Holmes. A new, mysterious animal has made her way to the Greenville Zoo. Last week, the City of Greenville posted this video about her, saying she was “getting acclimated to her new environment.”

Here’s what we know

  • She’s a girl
  • The container she was carried in appears to be roughly four feet tall, four feet wide, and two feet long (this is City Editor Stephanie’s best guess based on the video, so please take this with a grain of salt)
  • She’s almost definitely really cute

Here’s what we don’t know

  • ...Pretty much anything else

So, we want your guesses. Based on this video, submit your best guess as to what kind of critter you think we’re getting. One of you is bound to be right.
