😭 the only thing worse than an animal going extinct, is being the last member of the species who still has a life left to live. Jesus, that's some profoundly, cosmically depressing shit. And I'm not sure if it's better or worse for the animal to be aware that it's the last of its kind. Fruitlessly calling for a mate, or knowing there's no point bothering.
