Ayam Cemani aren't that rare! I mean, yes, they're sorta rare, still, but they are findable for purchase in the USA. I have a lovely Cemani hen; just need a gentleman friend for her, LOL!

Humans have always been fascinated by animals, but the world can give us more reasons to be amazed. There are many rare animals that you may never have heard of or that you never expected to see in your lifetime. Even animals you think you know occasionally give us surprises, such as being born with unusual coloring or shapes.
At Bright Side, we want to share some of the rarest animals on Earth. Don’t forget to check out our bonus at the end that shows unusual lizards who seem to jump right from a fairy tale.
1. The clouded leopard might be rare, but it’s the state animal of Meghalaya.
2. In 2019, a black leopard was photographed in Kenya for the first time in over a century.
3. New Guinea has tree-kangaroos who live in the country’s tropical rainforests.
4. Penguins don’t always come in black and white; some of them are fully black.
5. Ribbon seals develop white ring-like markings on their black fur after molting.
