Mount Oku rat, Mittendorf's striped grass mouse
[edit]( Back to T:TDYK )
( Article history links: )
... that the Mount Oku rat inhabits forests on a single mountain and is "endangered" by habitat destruction while the Mittendorf's striped grass mouse, living higher on the same mountain, is of "least concern"?

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 06:20, 30 May 2019 (UTC).
Articles are both expanded enough, new enough in the expansion time and have no outstanding tags on the pages. The articles are neutral, with no copyvio issues. The hook facts are sourced in the articles and verified in the sources. The hook is a bit unwieldy, could it be restructured slightly to reduce the length?--Kevmin § 17:08, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Kevmin: Thank you for the review. How about ALT1? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:10, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
- ALT1 ... that although living on the same mountain, the Mount Oku rat is endangered by habitat destruction while the Mittendorf's striped grass mouse is not?
- @Cwmhiraeth: Much more concise, I like it. Do we need the scare quotes around endangered?--Kevmin § 00:04, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- @Kevmin: I have removed them, and struck the original hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:02, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
