Adhika]
The
New Species + New Family, closely
Related to Kangaroo Family, Discovered
& Proved by Wildlife Conservationalist Dijo
Thomas in Pavaratty, Thrichur, Kerala, India in
June,
&
Proved Scientifically on 14 Aug 2016 using the Fact,
Features, Factors etc. Based - New Species Scientifically
Proving Method {F3B-NSPM
}
Discovered
in : June 2016
Wildlife
Conservationalist Dijo Thomas has Proved using Fact,
Features, Factors etc. Based - New Species Scientifically
Proving Method [F3B-NSPM] that:
1.
Raktha Athika is a New Species
2.
Raktha Athika is a New Family
3.
Raktha Athika Family is closely Related to Kangaroo
Family
Dijo
Thomas's Mission: To
Save & Conserve Raktha Adhika a New Species
& a New Family found in Pavaratty, Engandiyur
(Engandiyoor), the coastal belt of Thrissur, Kerala,
India, Discovered & Scientifically Proved by
him.
Dijo
Thomas presented Scientific Paper in 104th
Indian Science Congress; held at Sri
Venkateswara University, Tirupathi, Andhra Pradesh
on 06 Jan 2017.
History:
One
Raktha Adhika was caught in a cage, but let off
/ killed secretly for the meat, as one local Teacher
Mr. P. O Nameer, who wrongly said that it was an
Indian Palm Civet.
Three
weeks later, towards the end of June 2016, Mr. Dijo
Thomas, a very dedicated Scientist / Conservationalist
/ Environment Protection Activist / Wildlife Researcher
, who was travelling outside the state, was informed
by a woman Journalist of Thrissur about the development.
She wanted to know whether it was the cub of Neelagiri
Kaduva
{Dijo
Thomas had earlier Discovered & Scientifically
Proved NeelagiriKaduva, a NEW Species + a New Family,
the 8 th Big Cat in the world {after Tiger, Lion,
Leopard etc.}, as Big as the Tiger, the Ancestor
of both Feline {Cat} & Canid {Dog} Families.
http://www.NeelagiriKaduva.com}
Immediately
on seeing the picture of Raktha Adhika, Dijo Thomas
said that, it was a NEW Species & highly probable
that it was closely Related to Kangaroo Family.
Later
on 14 Aug 2016, Dijo Thomas Scientifically
Proved that Raktha Adhika was a NEW Species + a
New Family using the Fact, Features, Factors
etc. Based - New Species Scientifically Proving
Method {F3B-NSPM }.

Scientific
Paper Presentation: On 06 Jan 2017 Dijo
Thomas presented Scientific Paper
on Raktha Adhika in 104th
Indian Science Congress; held at Sri Venkateswara
University, Tirupathi, Andhra Pradesh.
Maximum
Probable Number: 6 - 15
Food:
Drinks the blood of Goats & Chicken.
Do not eat Flesh. Two holes on the neck of the prey.
Raktha
Adhika certainly drinks / eats something
else as its main diet, but Dijo Thomas
has not been able to find out what it is. His can
only guess for now, which may be anything from coconut
juice to fish.
Travel:
Land & Water
Location:
Pavaratty, Thrichur, Kerala, India in June
2016.

Similar
Reported Animal: Chupacabra or Chupacabras
(Spanish pronunciation: [tʃupaˈkaβɾas], literally
"goat-sucker"; from "chupar",
"to suck", and "cabra", "goat")
. But Chupacabra is not Scientifically Proven, whereas
Raktha Adhika has been Scientifically
Proven by Dijo Thomas.
By
Extention, Chupacabra also now stands Proved by
Dijo Thomas.
Conservation
status: Critically Endangered (CR)
As
the Kerala Forest Department is Doing Nothing to
Protect Raktha Adhika, Dijo
Thomas is Fighting for its protection as
a One Man Army.
Wildlife
Quiz
▪Is it a Palm Civet which
lost its Hair?
▪Or is it an Unknown Animal till now?
✖ No, with Direct Knowledge of Palm Civets, I can
Guarantee that it is Not a Palm Civet, which
lost its Hair. From Childhood Onwards, I used to
observe Palm Civets in the attic of my house
in Kottayam, Kerala. I used to protect them in the
Attic and observe the young ones in close
quarters, by climbing into the attic. Though they
have Excellent Night Vision, they have poor Day
sight, and will look at you blankly, during Day
time.
▪ Sarcoptic mange is a highly contagious mite infection
caused by
Sarcoptes scabiei in the skin of domestic and wild
mammals, like coyotes, foxes, wolves, dogs
etc. One of the effects of this disease is to loose
the hair, mostly in patches.
But what you see in this picture is NOT Scarcoptic
mange. This is the NATURAL STATE of hair for
this Animal.
⛔ You can see a side view of this Animal here:

�� �� Raktha Athika [ Vampire Kangaroo
]
(Pron: Rek-tha Ya-thi-ka) is a Newly Discovered
Species ;
a Blood Drinking Mammal that was obtained in a Cage
in Pavaratty, Thrissur, Kerala, India in June
2016 ❗
�� Raktha Athika Family is Closely Related to Macropodidae
(Macropods, meaning "large foot")
Family, ie. Kangaroo Family.
{ Raktha Athika means --- Blood (Drinking) &
Multi-Dimentional } .
�� Raktha Athika is Endemic to Coastal Belt of Thrissur,
Kerala, India .
�� Chupacabra is the Second Species in Raktha Athika
Family ❗
�� Though Initially Dijo Thomas Stated in the First
Media Release that Raktha Athika is Not a
Marsupial, as he DIDN'T Get Any Evidence at that
Point in Time to Classify it as a Marsupial ;
Dijo Thomas Now Classifies Raktha Athika as a Marsupial,
with 90 % Chance !
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
�� Scientifically Proven:
............................................................................................
�� Scientific Paper Presentation:
✅ Dijo Thomas Presented ➖ Two Scientific Papers
on Raktha Athika and F3B-NSPM Method
for Raktha Athika &
4 Scientific Papers on Neelagiri Kaduva, the NEW
Species Found by him and F3B-NSPM Method
in
�� 1. 103rd Indian Science Congress; held at University
of Mysore on 07 Jan 2016 &
�� 2. Two Scientific Papers on Raktha Athika and
F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika in 104th
Indian Science Congress; held at SV University,
Tirupathi in Jan 2017.
�� 3. an updated paper in 104th Indian Science Congress;
held at SV University, Tirupathi in Jan
2017.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximum Probable Number: 6 - 19
Food:
✅ Raktha Athika Drinks the BLOOD of Goats &
Chicken.
❌ Raktha Athika Do NOT Eat Flesh of it's Prey, at
all.
�� There will be TWO HOLES on the Neck of the Prey.
�� Unlike Felines, Cannids or �� Neelagiri Kaduva
[ Neelagiri Tiger ] ; There WON'T be Any Other
Wound on the Body of the Prey !!
�� Raktha Athika Certainly Drinks / Eats , Something
Else as its Main Diet, but Dijo Thomas has
Not Been able to Find Out what it is !
Dijo Thomas Says that, He can only Guess for now,
which may be anything from Coconut Juice,
Herbs to Fish.
............................................................................................
■ Similar Reported Animal : CHUPACABRA
or Chupacabras (Spanish pronunciation: [tʃupaˈkaβɾas],
literally "goat-sucker"; from "chupar",
"to
suck", and "cabra", "goat")
.
�� But Chupacabra Was Not Scientifically Proven,
when Dijo Thomas Discovered Raktha
Athika !
➖�� On the Contrary, the Scientists in America were
Saying that Chupacabra Didn't Exist !
■ ⛔ Dijo Thomas later went on to Scientifically
Prove Chupacabra, in 2017 ❗
............................................................................................
■ Raktha Athika --- Fact File
Travel : Land & Water
Discovery Location : Pavaratty, Thrichur District,
Kerala, India in June 2016.
Range : Ponnani - Chavakkadu - Triprayar
In Thrichur and Malappuram Districts of Kerala,
India .
Conservation status: Critically Endangered (CR)
Behaviour : Nocturnal
............................................................................................
�� As the Kerala Forest Department is Doing Nothing
to Protect Raktha Athika and Neelagiri
Tiger ;
Dijo Thomas is Fighting for its protection as a
One Man Army, since the First Discovery ❗❗
............................................................................................
�� Dijo Thomas spent 2 years ➖ in 2016 and 2017
- in the Coastal Belt of Thrissur, Working
among the Local People, Any Income or Savings; A.
Conserving
1. �� Neelagiri Kaduva [ Neelagiri Tiger ]
2. �� Raktha Athika
B. Researching on his Discoveries;
C. by Educating Local People on the Utmost Importance
in Conserving and Protecting These 2 &
other Species like Jungle Cats, Foxes , Palm Civets,
Migratory and Local Birds etc., Found in that
Region .
■ Dijo Thomas Re-Discovered
1. �� Neelagiri Kaduva [ Neelagiri Tiger ] in March
2016 ; &
Dijo Thomas DISCOVERED
2. �� Raktha Athika for the First Time in June 2016
,
in the Coastal Belt of Thrissur ❗
............................................................................................
............................................................................................
▪�� Raktha Athika has the Hands of Humans ❗❗❗
■ Dijo Thomas have Confirmed Many Reports from Thrissur
area, where Raktha Athika have
opened the Bolt of a Chicken's Cage, Exactly like
a Human Being.
■ Observe the Hands of Raktha Athika .
What does it look like ❓
�� The Hands of Raktha Athika are Much Similar to
Human Hands !
�� The Fingers of Raktha Athika are Much Similar
to Human Fingers !
⛔ They open the Bolt of a Chicken's Cage, Exactly
like a Human Being.
Other Wild Animals like Jungle Cats, Civet Cats,
which are common in the same locality, Cannot
Open Bolt of the Cage of Chickens, as the structure
of their Hands DON'T have that Flexibility !
............................................................................................
❓ Is Raktha Athika is only an Indian Palm Civet,
which lost its Hair due to Mange ?
■ There have been a wide Propaganda that, Raktha
Athika is only an Indian Palm Civet, which
lost its Hair due to Mange.
Actually, They are ABSOLUTELY WRONG !!
( Mange is a skin disease of animals caused by mite
infestations, characterized
by inflammation, itching, thickening of the skin,
and hair loss. The most severe form of mange is
caused by varieties of the mite Sarcoptes scabiei.
Sarcoptic mange is caused by a parasitic mite (Sarcoptes
scabiei) that burrows just beneath
the surface of the skin. It is important not to
confuse sarcoptic mange with demodectic mange,
which is caused by a different parasitic mite.
The presence of the sarcoptic mite causes intense
itching. The dog will chew and scratch its
skin constantly. This leads to the loss of large
amounts of hair, especially on the legs and belly.
Eventually, the skin will become thickened ).
�� I will Do a Separate Post on the Morphological
Differences Between Asian Palm Civet and
Raktha Athika .
[ The Morphological Differences are already Stated
in Dijo Thomas's F3B-NSPM Method for
Raktha Athika ! ]
............................................................................................
▪�� The NATURE of the HAIR on Raktha Athika
■ The NATURE of the HAIR on Raktha Athika is ⛔ ITS
NATURAL CONDITION ❗❗❗
■ The NATURE of the HAIR on Raktha Athika is , Again
, Similar to that of HUMANS , Than that
of Other Mammals like Felines, Cannids, Hyaenidaes,
Viverrids or Even Other Primates !!!
�� If You Observe Very Closely, You Can See that
➖ the NATURE of the HAIR on Raktha Athika
is Very Long, ---- Infact Extremely Long for Any
Mammals ---- , but very Thin ( You can barely see
it
in the photo, unless You closely observe ), Semi
- Curly and Not at all Strong ❗
�� The NATURE of the HAIR on Raktha Athika is in
Sharp Contrast to Other Mammals like
Felines, Cannids, Hyaenidaes, Viverrids - which
are Mostly Short and Strong ;
And Very Different from Other Primates !!
�� The Above Evidences, Stated by Dijo Thomas, Clearly
Proves that The NATURE of the HAIR
on Raktha Athika is NOT BECAUSE of Mange !
............................................................................................
❌ How the American Scientists, went TERRIBLY WRONG
on Chupacabra
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
⛔ 1. NATURE of the HAIR on CHUPACABRA is one of
the Main POINTS that the Scientists in
America Went TERRIBLY WRONG on Chupacabra ❗❗
⛔ Plainly, They Were NOT ABLE to Differentiate and
Properly Find Out The NATURE of the HAIR
on CHUPACABRA and It's Difference with Other Mammals❗
�� But this is NOT the Only Point, where, the American
Scientists, went Wrong !
�� Infact, on MOST of the MAIN POINTS , the American
Scientists, went TERRIBLY WRONG on
Chupacabra ❗
�� 2. Just Because the American Scientists Got Only
the Body of a Coyote with Mange ; they "
ASSUMED " that " All the Sightings of
Numerous People were Only Coyotes ❗��
❌ I would Say that, it was a Very Foolish Way of
Proving the Non-existance of Chupacabra !
�� But No-Body Till this Moment, Thought of This
Important Point ;
and as a Result, No-Body Till this Moment said about
this Fact ❗
�� As a Result , it Got Widely Accepted that Chupacabra
Doesn't Exist !
�� 3. Though there is Bound to be Many False Eyewitnesses,
the American Scientists , Again "
ASSUMED That " All Eyewitnesses are Wrong !
Which, Now is Evident, were Not !
�� 4. �� Eyewitnesses are Very Important in Any
Discovery ; Differentiating Between the Real
and Wrong Eyewitnesses is Very Important !
�� American Scientists Failed in this also.
�� 5. In August 2016 , I saw a Video of a Real Chupacabra,
sitting in a Cage in American
Continent in YouTube. ( But I Don't see that Video
in YouTube Now. )
�� American Scientists Failed again to Properly
Understand the UNIQUENESS of the
Morphological Features of the Chupacabra Obtained
in a Cage !
❌ Thus an Important and Rare Wild Animal , CHUPACABRA
, which ; was Wrongly Assumed to
be NON-EXISTANT by the American Scientists ❗
⛔ This Mistake by American Scientists have a Big
Negative Impact for the Conservation of one
of the Most Important Species in the World, the
CHUPACABRA ❗
............................................................................................
�� Finally that Task Of Scientifically Proving Chupacabra
, also fell on the Shoulders of Dijo
Thomas , from 15,000 /- Kms away ❗
[ ⛔ A Little Self - Appreciation is Very Much Welcome
here ; as it will Lead to Further Squirming
and Extreme Mental Agony to My Enemies, Researchers
without Any Discoveries, Pseudo
Scientists etc. , who are Briming with Jealousious
Dijophobia ������ ]
............................................................................................
⛔ Further to Say, ➖ Excuse me for the Expression,
as it is Very Much Warrented to Save the
5 Rare Species Discovered by Dijo Thomas ➖ Those
Who Say that Raktha Athika is only an
Asian Palm Civet which lost its Hair due to Mange
, are Certified Idiots ❗❗
............................................................................................
�� Why does Raktha Athika / Chupacabra have Extremely
Less Hair on its Body ❓
Is there any Reason ??
Actually there is a REASON !
I Will do a "Surprise" Post about that
Later ❗❗
............................................................................................
■ �� F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika
In this Article , I am Giving Only a FEW POINTS
, of Dijo Thomas's
F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika !
My Original F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika Runs
about 12 Pages, as Rough Notes, which I
will Publish Later !
I will Do a Separate Post on the Dijo Thomas's
F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika !
............................................................................................
■ �� How did Dijo Thomas Prove that
Raktha Athika Family is Closely Related to Kangaroo
Family ?
I will Do a Separate Post on the Morphological Similarities
Between Macropods and Raktha
Athika .
[ The Morphological Similarities Between Macropods
and Raktha Athika are already Stated in
Dijo Thomas's F3B-NSPM Method for Raktha Athika
! ]
............................................................................................
? What Happened in Thrissur in 2016 !
But that Rare Animal, obtained in a Cage in Thrissur,
Kerala in 2016, was killed secretly for the
meat, as one local "wildlife" Teacher
P.O Nameer, wrongly said that it was only an Indian
Palm
Civet, which lost its hair.
Immediately on seeing the picture of Raktha Adhika,
Dijo Thomas said that, it was a NEW
Species & highly probable that it was closely
Related to Kangaroo Family.
�� Later Dijo Thomas Scientifically Proved that
Raktha Athika was a NEW Species + a New
Family using the Fact, Features, Factors etc. Based
- New Species Scientifically Proving Method
{F3B-NSPM } and Published and Released the Method
on ⛔ 16 Aug 16.
▪✅ 16 August - The Day in which Raktha Athika was
Scientifically Proved using F3B-NSPM
method is observed as Raktha Athika Day.
Raktha Athika is a New Species & a New Family,
Closely Related to Kangaroo Family !!
............................................................................................
❓ Where do �� Neelagiri Kaduva [ Neelagiri Tiger
] and 2. �� Raktha Athika Hide in the
Countryside of Costal Thrissur ?
⛔ Hard to Believe, there are NO Forests in that
, but there are A Lot Of Places there,
Where Both these Rarest of Wild Animals can Hide;
without people seeing them !
( ▪ But there are a Large Number of Small Forested
Private Plots Ranging from 1 Acre to 15
Acres, where Both Species can Hide !
▪ Add to that more than 2000 Acres of Kole Nilam
( Swamp and Paddy Fields , where they can
Hide ) .
�� It is this ▪Uncanny and ▪Unmatched
■ 1. ABILITY of STEALTH &
■ 2. Exceptional INTELLIGENCE ;
Which Enables these 2 , Rarest of Rarest Species
to HIDE from People , with people Seeing them,
Only Very Very Rarely.
This ABILITIES ENABLED �� Neelagiri Kaduva [ Neelagiri
Tiger ] and Raktha Athika to SURVIVE
in the Countryside of Thrissur, for many Centuries
❗ Among Human Population ❗❗
[ I had Earlier Wrote 2 Detailed Articles on the
1. Hiding Places of �� Neelagiri Kaduva [ Neelagiri
Tiger ] &
2. Migratory Paths of Neelagiri Kaduva
Countryside of Thrissur. Please Read that for more
information ] .
............................................................................................
�� Please Note that, I have Classified Raktha Athika
as a New Family, and NOT that of
Macropodidae Family ! From the Very Beginning itself,
I have Classified Raktha Athika as a New
Family, and you can see that from My First Media
Release itself !
............................................................................................
▪Raktha Athika Day - 16 August
▪Raktha Athika Discovery Day - 21 June
............................................................................................
❓ Does Chupacabra Really Exists ?
✅ Chupacabra Really Exists, in-Spite-of what Scientists
in America said !!
�� Chupacabra is the Second Species in Raktha Athika
Family ❗
�� Dijo Thomas have Proved Chupacabra Substantially
through Raktha Athika , in 2017 Itself ❗
............................................................................................
�� I Request all Friends and Wildlife Enthusiasts
to observe 16 August as Raktha Athika Day.
❓What You can do to Support Raktha Athika Conservation
Day ?

അജ്ഞാതജീവിയെ പിടികൂടാനുള്ള
കെണിയില് കുടുങ്ങിയത് അപൂര്വ ജീവി
Published:September 9, 2016
തൃശൂര്: അജ്ഞാതജീവിയെ പിടികൂടാന് വെച്ച കെണിയില് കുടുങ്ങിയത്
ചോരയൂറ്റി കുടിക്കുന്ന, കങ്കാരുവര്ഗത്തില്പ്പെട്ട
അപൂര്വയിനം ജീവിയാണെന്ന് സൂചന. രണ്ടുമാസം മുമ്പ് വെങ്കിടങ്ങിലാണ്
ജീവിയെ പിടികൂടിയത്.
ജീവിയുടെ അപൂര്വ്വ സവിശേഷതകള് നാട്ടുകാര് വനംവകുപ്പ്
ഉദ്യോഗസ്ഥരെ അറിയിച്ചെങ്കിലും രോമം കൊഴിഞ്ഞ മരപ്പട്ടിയാണെന്ന്
വന്യജീവി ശാസ്ത്രജ്ഞന്റെ അഭിപ്രായപ്രകാരം തുറന്നുവിടുകയായിരുന്നു.
അതിനാല് ആ ജീവി പുതിയ ജന്തുവര്ഗ്ഗമാണെന്ന് തെളിയിക്കാനുളള
സാദ്ധ്യത നഷ്ടപ്പെട്ടതായും വന്യജീവി സംരക്ഷകന് ഡിജോ
തോമസ് ആരോപിക്കുന്നു.
ജീവിയുടെ മുഖം, ചെവി, ശരീരത്തിന്റെ മുകളിലുള്ള കൂന്,
കൈകാലുകളുടെ ആകൃതി, വാല്, പാദം എന്നിവക്കെല്ലാം കങ്കാരുവുമായി
സാമ്യമുണ്ട്. വെള്ളത്തിലും കരയിലും ഒരേപോലെ സഞ്ചരിക്കാനാകും.
മരത്തില് ചാടിക്കയറിയും. കങ്കാരുവിനെപ്പോലെ ചാടിച്ചാടിയും
സഞ്ചരിക്കും.
വിരലുകള്ക്ക് മനുഷ്യന്റെ വിരലുകളുമായി സാമ്യം. മനുഷ്യനെപ്പോലെ
കൈകൊണ്ട് പിടിക്കാനാകും. വെള്ളത്തില് സഞ്ചരിക്കാന്
താറാവിന്റേതുപോലെ വിരലുകള്ക്കിടയില് ചര്മ്മം.
കങ്കാരുവില് നിന്ന് വ്യത്യസ്തനാക്കുന്നത് ചോര കുടിക്കുന്ന
സ്വഭാവവും സഞ്ചി ഇല്ലായ്മയും ശരീരത്തിന് രണ്ടടി നീളവും
ഒരടി പൊക്കവും വാലിന് രണ്ടരയടിയോളം നീളവുമുളള ജീവിക്ക്
രക്തംകുടിക്കുന്ന സ്വഭാവം ഉള്ളതുകൊണ്ട് ‘രക്ത അധിക’
എന്നാണ് ഡിജോ പേര് നല്കിയത്.
‘നീലഗിരി കടുവ’ എന്ന ജീവി വര്ഗത്തെ കണ്ടെത്തിയതായി
ഡിജോ മുമ്പ് അവകാശപ്പെട്ടിരുന്നു. നീലഗിരിക്കടുവയെ
സംബന്ധിച്ച പഠനത്തിനായി ഡിജോ കാഞ്ഞാണിയില് താമസിക്കുമ്പോള്
സംഘത്തിലുണ്ടായിരുന്ന വന്യജീവി സംരക്ഷകനായ പ്രസാദ്
മങ്ങാട്ടുകര ആടുകളുടെ രക്തം മാത്രം കുടിക്കുന്ന ഒരു
ജീവി ചാവക്കാട് മേഖലയിലുണ്ടെന്ന് അറിയിച്ചിരുന്നു.
പുതിയ ജീവിയെ കുറിച്ച് കൂടുതല് പഠിക്കാനൊരുങ്ങുകയാണ്
ഡിജോ.
