"The Saimaa ringed seal — an endangered mammal native to the Lake Saimaa region in Eastern Finland — has now been officially recognised as a distinct species."

It's also "...Finland’s only endemic mammal — meaning that it exists nowhere else in the world — and it is one of few endemic mammals across Europe."
