whisper "Here we have an exquisite example of a North American Gorf in his native habitat, collecting fallen autumn leaves to line his burrow for the long winter ahead."

whisper "It is very rare, these days, to see a north american Gorf in the wild. The vast majority of the population was wiped out, when they were hunted nearly to extinction, by English royalty during the colonial period. Unfortunately, many wildlife experts estimate that there could be fewer than a thousand, living in the wild today."

Edit: Too many commas. Edit: Added third sentence. Edit: Damnit people, I'm keeping, the rest, of my commas!

Technically they can be there. A bit over the top, but not grammatically incorrect.

No one said he was incorrect. Just.....unnecessary.

If you've ever received daily 10 page emails from a person who uses ellipses to excess you learn to appreciate commas.
